A rescue dog named Patsy runs from new owners Christine and Leslie Reading for about six weeks before leading them to the location where she gave birth. According to reports, Patsy gives her owners the slip and then, when they are reunited, drags them through countryside, woodland, and brambles for nearly a mile. The journey ends at the site where Patsy had been keeping her litter. The reports describe the dog’s actions as the owners follow her to uncover the puppies’ hiding place after the extended time on the run. The incident is set in Herefordshire and centers on the effort by the owners to locate Patsy and her newborn pups following her disappearance after being taken in as a rescue. While the articles focus on the search and the dog’s behavior, they present a consistent account that Patsy’s prolonged escape ultimately results in her owners discovering the litter she had produced.
