We love good dog stories,and for some reason,they all seem to take place in Japan.This time,the Japan's earthquake kept a 14-year-old dog named Maruko away from her loving family.She was trapped
(困住)under the house for 11days without food or water.But when she was finally found,she was still alive.However,she only had five days to find her owners,or she would be euthanized(使安乐死).
Maruko's owners were told in time,but they were staying at a shelter.People who had no house lived there.And dogs were not allowed there.Although they knew that Maruko was still alive,they couldn't help her.A volunteer flew to save Maruko,"When we finally saw the dog,she was inside a cage.she was so frightened that she was shaking,"the volunteer said,Then the volunteer sent Maruko to JEARS,an animal group called Japan Earthquake Animal Rescue and Support.The JEARS's rescuers did't know about Maruko's owners,so the dog was brought to one of JEARS's shelters,and then to an associated(伙伴的)rescue group,HEART in Tokushinma.
In September,2011,the owners came across a video called"Maruko's story"on JEARS'blog,and called the organization.They were finally living in a home again,and were ready to meet their lovely dog.HEART's volunteers traveled with Maruko from their shelter in Shikoku to Sendai by plane.It was an 800-mile journey.Maruko was finally back.
