Super dog Sophie!

Sophie, an Australian sheepdog, fell overboard as her family sailed through rough Australian seas. Then Sophie did what any fearless dog would do - or try to do - swim to safety!

Sophie managed to swim 5 nautical miles in the storm to arrive at Bee's Island (near the Queenland Coast). The coast guard found Sophie living on Bee's Island subsisting on a diet of baby goats. When strangers tried to feed her she refused to take the food (probably because she had been warned not to take food from strangers).

However, when her owner showed up to greet Sophie there was a joyful reunion of tail wagging and whimpering.

Well, done, Sophie! You're a REAL Adventure Mutt!
