ORLANDO - Dutchess the fox terrier squeezed out the door at her owner's house in Orlando, Florida, one day in February 2007 and didn't return. A devastated Katheryn Strang made"lost dog" signs and took daily trips to the local shelter for months, desperate to find her.

A man found the dog under his shed in the Pittsburgh area, almost 1,600km from Orlando. He took the shivering animal to a shelter, Humane Animal Rescue. There, a scan of Dutchess's microchip linked her to Ms Strang, who had since moved to Boca Raton, Florida. "Dutchess. Hi, baby. I missed you," Ms Strang says in the video as she strokes the dog's face."Your face is all white."

The dog, who is now 14, was hungry, shaking and"in serious need of a nail trim" when she arrived at the shelter, said Ms Torin Fisher, an admissions counsellor with Humane Animal Rescue. She was also"a little nervous about the situation, which, who could blame her?" Ms Fisher said. But otherwise, Dutchess was in pretty good shape.
