Dogs are the best and most of us can say that without a doubt. Recently, an owner of a one-year-old golden retriever was astonished when they found that their pet had walked over 100kms in fourteen days to return back home.

The owner had put the dog at a friend’s house due to the renovation work that was going on at their home. This happened with the dog owners who reside in eastern China’s Qidong city and a dog named Ping An (Safe and Sound) was dropped safely at his temporary owner's house.

However, after some days the family of the dog was grief-stricken and extremely heartbroken as Ping An had run away from their friend's house and had gone missing.

But, Ping An’s owner had no clue that he had embarked on a solo trip back home to get back with his actual family. The adorable dog walked for 14 days to reach his home. When he reached the city, a group of people spotted him outside an office and took care of the wounded and malnourished dog.

To find out the owners of the dog, the group of people shared a picture of the dog on the Chinese messaging app called WeChat. The post got viral and Ping An’s owners were found within a day.

They were soon reunited and owners came to pick up the dog from the company’s site. Also, now Ping An’s owners have decided to never send him away ever again.
