Every dog has its day and that couldn’t be more accurate for Pipsqueak, a stranded dachshund pup, who we reunited with her family at Sydney Airport this week.
In March, the pooch was sailing around the Pacific with her owners on a four-year global sailing adventure when COVID-19 struck, separating the family and Pip, as she’s affectionately known, when owners Zoe and Guy Eilbeck and their children were forced to fly back to Australia urgently. Over the next five months, strangers all over the United States cared for Pip, before she began her 17,000 kilometre journey home to Sydney, via North and South Carolina, Los Angeles, Auckland, and Melbourne.
