Japanese TV Captures Emotional Reunion Between Owner & Lost Dog
TOKYO (AP) — A dog rescued from drifting ocean debris immediately jumped to her owner and wagged her tail at their reunion more than three weeks after Japan’s tsunami. Toshio Suzuki described Monday’s reunion at the animal shelter he heads in the tsunami-wrecked Miyagi region of northern Japan. The owner of the 2-year-old mixed breed named Ban saw Friday’s rescue on television. The woman was not identified for privacy reasons. Suzuki said she has an adult daughter and that the family suffered tsunami damage but was not specific. Public broadcaster NHK aired images of the reunion with the woman hugging Ban and the dog warmly wagging her tail. A coast guard helicopter crew spotted Ban more than a mile (two kilometers) off the tsunami-hit town of Kesennuma in Miyagi. It wasn’t known how long the dog had been at sea. Suzuki says the shelter keeps 19 dogs and several cats separated from their owners after the March 11 tsunami. |

Why do they wear the face masks again? I thought it was down to the amount of SARS..but then not everyone wears the masks. Nice video though..i always feel worse for animals than i do humans. |
