Lost On A Trip, This Dog Traveled 236 Miles Home

Last Updated on April 11, 2023 by Pets Feed

Besides being loyal, dogs are very intelligent animals with incredible tracking abilities, which is why they always come home even if they are lost. These qualities were very evident in Pablo, a 2-year-old jagdterrier who got lost last week in Savoie and traveled nearly 380 kilometers to return home to Gard, according to France Bleu.

Catherine and Roger, in their sixties, had gone on a trip to Italy with their motorhome. On August 19, they decided to stop at Saint-Martin-de-Belleville, in Savoie. Pablo, his dog, went out alone for a walk while they stood still. However, after a while, the couple started to worry that their pet was not arriving, which is very rare as it was walking around without company.

GPS so we don’t lose it anymore

As usual, the dogs immediately become one more member of the adopting family, so Catherine and Roger have no plans to abandon Pablo.

Catherine says:

We waited for hours. We even spent the night there, without success.

Having no news of him, they went to report his disappearance before going to their relatives in Ain.

Roger explains:

It allowed us to be closer in case someone called us regarding Pablo.

Hours passed and there was no trace of Pablo, until on Saturday they received the best news possible when one of his friends, in charge of guarding his house in Bezouce (Gard) sent them a photo by SMS. “I recognized Pablo, I couldn’t believe it, it was a real moment of happiness,” Catherine remembers enthusiastically. The dog was noticeably damaged, but he was alive and at home.

Roger adds:

Right away we decided to go home.

After making sure Pablo was in pristine condition, the couple bought a GPS collar to avoid this unpleasant experience again.

How Can Dogs Get Home?

Dogs surprise us many times with stories like Pablo’s, in which they can travel many miles to get home. But how do they do it? Do they really have an impressive sense of direction? The truth is, they don’t know where they are, but they move around guided by their scent. They are able to differentiate a large number of aromas and follow the trail of the one that interests them. They thus manage to return home.

Likewise, the cytochrome 1 molecule has been shown to be present in the retina of dogs, also present in the eyes of migratory birds, and to directly influence the orientation of the animal through the magnetic field and processing. of what they call circadian rhythms, using it as a map to locate oneself in time and space.
