Related: About this forumFamily welcomes back dog lost in wilderness for months
POSTED 10:07 PM, MAY 29, 2018, BY LAUREN STEINBRECHER, UPDATED AT 10:58PM, MAY 29, 2018
WEBER COUNTY, Utah - A Weber County dog lost for weeks near Little Sahara, after he and his special-needs daughter disappeared Easter weekend, is finally home.
The Davis family had all but given up hope on Cooter, a 5-year old mini Aussie. His daughter, 3-year old Diamond, had returned home in near-perfect physical shape in mid-May.
On Tuesday, Tawnie Davis sat in her front yard with Cooter, who is visibly malnourished. She said he's lost 16 pounds, is missing five teeth and is fighting off fleas and ticks.
But the mini Aussie's spirit is none the worse for wear.

I really love the 'feel-good' stories. We need these stories to remind us that there are good things happening out there that we don't hear about with all the crap Trump is dumping on us daily.
