Dogs really are man's best friends. Ping An, a young Golden Retriever, managed to walk 100km to get back home. It was a long, 14-day trip through China for this one-year-old dog whose name means "safe and sound" in Mandarin.

This heart-warming story was published on Ladbible's website. Ping An's owners had arranged for the dog to stay with friends in Nantong while their house was undergoing renovations. However, young Ping An decided to sneak out to go back home in Qidong, 100km away, near the Yellow Sea.
