But how did Exeter Bear get to London?
A homeless man from Exeter was left 'distraught' after his dog, named Bear, was stolen from him last month. CCTV recorded the incident - the owner was sleeping at the time.
This week, however, the owner was reunited with his four-legged friend.
The American Atika was found in London after being taken to a kennel. Luckily for Bear, the kennel worker saw the appeal - which was shared by thousands on social media nationwide - and got in touch.
🏡Well now!!! Some amazing late night news !! Thank you good friend @pettheftaware
