A happy ending

I’m a fan of happy endings, so when I heard about Valerie, a ten-pound mini dachshund that had been missing for over a year and was miraculously found alive and well, my heart soared. 

Valerie disappeared from a remote campsite on Kangaroo Island in southern Australia, but after days of searching, her heartbroken family had to leave the island without her. More than seventeen months later, they were still struggling with her loss when they received word that a farmer had spotted a small black dog running through his field. It was Valerie.
