Bavaria: Dog reappeared after a week in the Alps

Schneizlreuth (dpa / lby) - They searched for him with drones: After a week, a dog appeared again in the Berchtesgaden Alps. Hikers first saw the dog Hardy at the Aschauerklamm, as the Bavarian Red Cross (BRK) announced on Thursday. From there he accompanied the hikers to Schneizlreuth (Berchtesgadener Land district), where his master picked up the animal on Wednesday.

Last Thursday, while hiking with his master, Hardy tore his leash loose and disappeared. On the same day, volunteers from the BRK searched for the dog using drones with a thermal imaging camera. "If we didn't search for the animals so extensively, the owners would do it themselves and put themselves in danger," said a spokesman for the BRK. In a season it happens more often that the BRK is looking for dogs. "If a dog smells a wild animal, then he's gone, you can't blame the dog for that."
