After six days and nine states, starting in West Virginia and going through Kentucky, Kansas, Wyoming, and Montana, the dog was home on Dec. 12.

Thanks to the good nature of volunteers, Zeus the dog-napped pit bull has been reunited with his owner in Montana after winding up in West Virginia.

Zeus was dog-napped from his home in Butte in October and ended up all the way in Charleston, West Virginia. Cassandra Rasmussen said a person she considered a friend stole her purse and took her 9-year-old dog after the person took advantage of her generosity.

Two months later, the sweet-natured pit bull was found when police pulled over a truck in West Virginia. The driver was arrested.

The dog had a microchip and was traced back to his owner, but he needed to find a way to get home.

A caravan of volunteers was organized through Many Paws Transport, and what followed was an extraordinary 2,000-mile journey home.
