[yortsed snacilbuper]

California man's beloved dog, Luna, has returned more than a month after she fell overboard in the Pacific Ocean and was presumed drowned.

The 1 ½-year-old German shepherd was spotted Tuesday on San Clemente Island, a Navy-owned training base 70 miles off San Diego.

5. Oh my gosh...go read the story.

She was sitting by the side of a road on the island...wagging her tail.

Such a happy ending but I'm telling you, in my "old" age, these stories really bring a tear to my eye. Our critters so many times need our help and don't always get it...these good-ending stories make me happy but get to me at the same time.

Now about people...yuk.

9. Perhaps an orange lifejacket on the dog from now on

Glad Luna is okay.

10. A vest may have helped them find her

but thank goodness she was a strong enough swimmer to get to shore. My fisherman brother keeps his dog in a flotation vest when she's on board because she's small and not a good swimmer.

11. Luna went Island of the Blue Dolphins

But like Juana Maria discovered on San Nicolas Island, it's a lonely existence even if Mother Nature provides all your needs. Luna, you are one lucky dog!
