Belle the pet jumped out of an automobile window on a South Carolina highway, to the horror of human beings involved. Belle was found 2 weeks later, about 600 miles (966 kilometers) away in Miami, Florida, says the owner’s kid.
From the Associated Press:
The canine called Belle got away from the moving vehicle near Charleston on July 15, according to Tim Whitfield, whose 90- year-old mother owns Belle.
Whitfield put out a call for help on Facebook at the time and said that he purchased the young puppy for his mom after her pet of 16 years recently passed away. She was “heartbroken” after hearing the pet was lost, Whitfield added.
After almost 2 weeks of browsing, Whitfield learned over the weekend that a cars and truck of Florida citizens got Belle out of traffic after finding the animal while taking a trip through Charleston to Miami, WCIV-TV reported Sunday.
The rescuers said they conserved Belle since they were afraid she was going to be struck by approaching automobiles, the station reported. They then located Whitfield through social media posts.
