A dog stayed with it's owner that has passed away in the Colorado mountains for 10 weeks.

Mr Moore's body was found on 30 October, with Finney by his side.

"Jack Russells are pretty fierce, I have to say, they're tough little dogs," she said, adding that Finney's "magnificent story of survival" is a testament to her dedication and loyalty to her owner."

The Associated Press quoted Ms VanneBrightyn as saying that Finney somehow survived, probably by hunting small animals such as mice while also managing to avoid predators like mountain lions, coyotes and bears.

That's amazing, pretty sure ours would just help himself to an arm and then eventually the rescuer's packed lunch if he hadn't managed to sniff out a pizza first.

I’ve always said,  if you locked your partner or dog in the boot of your car for a couple of hours.  Which one would be so happy and excited to see you when you let them out?

If that happened to me, I'd be found surrounded by millions of pinecones and sticks

My dog can **** right off. Yesterday he had a shit in the kitchen. That’s not too bad I hear you say. He then stood in it and proceeded to bounce around. Shit everywhere and on everything! Cupboards, walls, doors etc. Took hours and all the cleaning products to get rid of it. Still convinced I can smell it.

That being said he is sat next to me asleep as I type this with one hand and stroke the little **** with the other.

mine passed recently after a long and happy life, he was incontinent for the last six months and whilst the house no longer smells I'd give anything to clear up after him again.  They leave a hole when they are gone 🙁

Spending 10 weeks with a dead body and not eating it is just plain stupid though?

If it were either of our cats, they’d either go and find someone else who could feed them now that you’ve literally outlived your usefulness, or think ‘I wonder if he’s edible?’

Conclusion: dogs are thick as mince

It was bait for bigger pickings! This is a Jack Russell we're talking about here....
