Golden Retriever, Who Temporarily Stayed With Her Family's Friend, Walked 62 Miles In A Span Of Two Weeks Just To Go Back Home
Dogs are such loyal pets. Although it's a common argument that they're only faithful because we feed and shelter them, their loyalty goes beyond those basic needs. Think about it: we provide the same basic needs to hamsters and pet fish, but they never devote themselves as dogs do.
There are many things our beloved canines love about being our companions, especially playing with us. They jump with enthusiasm when we arrive home from work or school.
Today, we're looking at the story of a loyal golden retriever. The distance did not stop this dog from reuniting with the family that she loves.
Ping An lives with her family, who loves her dearly, in Qidong, Jiangsu, China. However, a day came when her family told her that she needed to live somewhere else temporarily.
Ping An's family needed to do some home renovations, so they had to send her to a safe place. They brought her to a friend's home to live for the time being.
The adorable golden retriever rode in the car with her family. They drove for two hours and reached their friend's home.
This is where Ping An would stay temporarily to ensure that she was safe and cared for. In just a couple of months, they would eventually return home.
The dog's family finally said goodbye to their beloved pet. Then they went home to begin the renovations.
Ping An, the golden retriever who traveled miles just to see her family.
Ping An, in her temporary home, gets all the love, care, and attention she needs.
However, she still misses her family, making her very homesick. She can't stop wondering about them.
After four months, she couldn't bear the homesickness any longer. So, she embarked on a journey back by herself.
The friends were shocked and worried upon finding out that Ping An ran away.
They were very concerned because she might get lost. In truth, Ping An knows where she's headed.
She walked relentlessly for two weeks, with only one thing on her mind: to get back to her family.
The distance never stopped her. She walked for about 62 miles.
She got injured during her long journey.

They promised Ping An that they'd never send her away again. It is very clear that the adorable golden retriever loves her family immensely.
She would go through any obstacle just to see them again. She'll take any journey, no matter how far.
