A dog who was separated from her owner when his car got bogged in bushland has miraculously been found alive after almost a month.
Robert Weber was last seen leaving the Kilkivan Hotel Motel in southeast Queensland with his Bull Arab Nessie on January 6.
The 58-year-old was found sitting under a tree, dehydrated and disoriented, 18 days later - but there was no sign of Nessie.
Mr Weber feared the worst, until his pet stumbled on to the property of Gympie MP Tony Perret on Sunday afternoon.
