Ralph, a cross between a Poodle and a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, went on a 100-mile taxi adventure after disappearing while on a walk with owner Georgia Cooke.
It turned out there was a taxi going to Manchester Airport and Ralph decided he preferred to go for a ride than go for a walk in the cold.
Ralph then made his way to the driver's home and it was only when an online search started did the driver return the dog back knowing who the owner was.
'He got back home, had a big breakfast and has slept most of the day,' said Georgia Cooke.

The taxi driver allowed the friendly dog to stay in the car as he observed that Ralph did not any identification von his collar. The passenger who had a flight to catch didn't mind the company either.
