Henry had been on a farm in Ashton Creek near Enderby when nearby fireworks spooked him and sent him running into the wilderness.

A Penticton family who thought they would never see their dog again is shocked and overjoyed to have him back after a miraculous five months spent surviving in the mountains.

Locals banded together to try and figure out whether the dog belonged to someone in town, and when it became clear he did not, they started keeping tabs on him. A coordinated group put out meals, tracked him and allowed him to sleep on their porches as the temperature plummeted. After discussion with his wife and Debbie Fortin, who runs the rescue, Baker decided to drive around trying to find Henry, and attempt a cautious approach.

"He kept doing that, he dropped something out of the car and drove up further, a sweater, a gymnastic suit for my daughter that was in her bag in the car," Hughes said. Clearly, Henry remembered his family. Baker brought Henry home the next day, which happened to be extra special for another reason.
