"ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) - A Labrador retriever has been found alive on an isolated cove of a Southeast Alaska island more than a month after its owner was given up for dead when his boat sank in rough seas.
Two local fishermen found the dog named Brick on Heceta Island several miles from the accident. The men had known the dog's owner, Greg Clark, who went down with his boat in late January...
Then last Thursday, Kevin Dau - Pugh's partner in an oyster operation - was fishing for winter king salmon with his father off the northwestern coast of Heceta near the accident site. When the two men motored into Port Alice to anchor for the night, Dau saw a black animal on the beach.
"His father said, 'That's a wolf.' But Kevin said, 'No, that's Brick,'" Pugh said. "And he got out on the bow and started calling, 'Brick! Brick!'...
Brick swam to the men's boat and was hauled aboard - underweight, with an injured leg, fur matted with tree sap, but wiggling with joy, according to friends of the fishermen...
The dog was starting to rebound, Pugh told the Anchorage Daily News. "He's hungry as hell and a little skinny, but he's doing all right."...
Brick's survival alone on the thick, jungly island during harsh winter weather has amazed and moved local people, Pugh said."
