When a rescue dog found herself lost in her new neighborhood, she somehow knew just where to go to find help.
In January Bailey, a Husky-Mix, was reported missing by her family from Upper El Paso. Her owners took to social media in an attempt to find her.
They contacted El Paso Animal Rescue League to rescue Bailey. The shelter posted photos of Bailey on Facebook along with the latest. “URGENT- This beautiful girl – Bailey- has gotten loose in the area of Mesa and Sunland Park,” the post read.
But Bailey knew a way to make rescue easier. She walked herself ten miles right back to the Rescue League’s doors in Canutillo and rang the bell with her nose.
At 1:40 AM, the surveillance camera on the doorbell caught an image of the clever dog.
“These dogs are smarter than people give them credit for,” Loretta Hyde, the Rescue League’s founder, told a local Fox News affiliate. “How did she know what direction to go? She was 10 miles away! What was she eating and drinking during that time ?
Bailey was immediately taken in by the shelter team and reunited with her family shortly afterwards.
