This is the heartbreaking moment a pet dog given away by its allergic owner returns home a month after being adopted.

The dog – a pedigree Shiba Inu called Saisai – had walked nearly five miles (8km) from its new home to get back to its original owner.

A video of the rover’s return shows the tearful owner – named as Ms Zhao in Harbin, Heilongjiang province, northern China – cuddling the pup.

Only a month earlier she had to give him away to a friend when she was admitted to hospital on 29th April suffering a severe and sudden asthmatic reaction to dog hair.

Exactly a month later – on 29th May – the dog escaped and found its way back walking for two hours to get home.

Another video shows the dog drinking water as Ms Zhao stares at it and cries.

She says in the video: “My darling dog has come home. I heard a noise but I didn’t know it was you, my baby.”

Now Saisai is apparently back for good.

Ms Zhao has built him a new doghouse and will try to overcome her allergy.
