TL;DR Summary

A Jack Russell terrier named Finney survived for over 10 weeks in the Colorado mountains after her owner died of hypothermia. When the owner's body was found, Finney was still with him, though she had lost half her body weight. The dog's survival is attributed to her loyalty and ability to hunt small animals while avoiding predators. This marks the third time a dog has been found alive next to a hiker's body in recent years. Finney has been reunited with the owner's family.
