All About Dogs
April 18, 2023 5:10 amA dog that went missing on an island off the coast of Alaska just showed up in mainland Alaska . . . after walking across more than 150 miles of sea ice.
His name is Nanuq. (nah-NOOK) Someone posted photos after he showed up in a town called Wales. It’s on the western tip of mainland Alaska. He had a bitemark from an unknown animal, possibly a seal or polar bear. But he’s okay.
His owners live on St. Lawrence Island, about 160 miles south. A pilot who was headed there let him hitch a ride, and he’s back home now. (Here’s a photo, and a video of his owners waiting for the plane. The reunion happens at 10:45.)
And speaking of dogs: The internet just found the real-life Snoopy. She’s a mini sheepadoodle named Bayley that looks exactly like the cartoon character.
Her owners posted a video of her for National Pet Day. People online are loving it.
