Lost dog returns to the shelter and rings the doorbell - Catherine - 02-14-2023
A rescue dog, Bailey got lost soon after her adoption. Everything possible was being done to find her. It turns out Bailey didn't need help. She walked back to the shelter, a journey of 10 miles, and at 1:15am started ringing their doorbell. Shelter staff rushed to let her in. She is safe back home with her family now.

It is remarkable that Bailey could find her way back to the shelter. Ten miles is a long way. What is more remarkable is her ringing the doorbell.
She was in a dog kennel at the shelter until her adoption. How would she know about the doorbell? She is clearly a very clever dog.
I hope she has enough sense not to get lost ever again.
