    sophieAustralia: Amazingly, a pet dog which was washed overboard and believed drowned has been found 4 months later – as a castaway on a remote Australian island.

    The dog – Sophie Tucker, disappeared as her owners -Jan and Dave Griffith sailed through stormy waters off the coast of Queensland in November last year. However, unbeknown to the grieving owners, Sophie survived a long swim across shark-infested waters to an island. (St Bees)She survived on the island, living on  a diet of baby goats until being found by visiting rangers. The Griffiths were amazed to hear of the discovery and have now been reunited with their pet.
