A dog rescued from a mountain: a heart-warming story

A feel-good story from the Washington Post (gift link):

His dog ran off after his wife died…

The dog had lost half of his body weight, and most likely wouldn’t have survived another night on the mountain. This story gives me all the feels.

Beautiful story! Thank you jerseymule

Yeah. Good on the guy who carried the dog down.

Wow. So happy for all, especially Riley.

Wonderful story.

It was a risky decision. Hikers have to conserve their energy and get off that mountain before dark. Glad man and dog got home safe
