Yeah. He spent the rest of his life there after that. Dad couldn’t bear to take him back to the Shelter seeing as how much effort he put into getting back home.

My parents had a dog that they surrendered to animal shelter many years ago. The shelter was closed for a few hours, but they had a drop off outside cage that they put him in and left. The shelter was 14 miles away and he had never left the house property before this time. 4 days later he was back at our house.
