Mia the sheltie before her ordeal. - ContributedST. JOHN'S, N.L. — You’d think finding your lost dog would be the ultimate joy, particularly after almost four weeks, but for Andrea and Dave Porter, that was only half the battle.

The Porters credit local groomer Kristen Ryan with explaining what it means for a dog to revert to primal instinct, and for help getting the dog back. On Day 8, they got word Mia was by the highway. When they got there, the RCMP was there trying to prevent her from crossing the road. “We’d put them on moose carcasses we would find in case she would eat those, just to get a glimpse of where she was to,” Andrea said.

They set out a cage with a door that would automatically shut if she went in, put some food in it, set up a camera and walked away. When it kicks in — upon some sort of short-term or even prolonged trauma — even the most pampered pet will lose all sense of being part of a human family.
