Dog Who Went Missing Before Superstorm Sandy Is Reunited With His Owners After 17 Months

Wesley has finally found his way home.
The dog was reunited with his family in New Jersey this week 17 months after he disappeared, according to a statement released by the West Windsor Police Department. The yellow Labrador retriever was spotted by a woman walking her dog. She then reported the wandering pup to the local police. When an officer went to retrieve the animal, the dog jumped right into the back of the police car, WTXF reported.
It was later, at a nearby boarding facility in Princeton, that officials scanned the pup's microchip and determined the Lab belonged to Miguel and Myra Cruz, and had been missing since November 2012. Wesley disappeared from the yard days before Hurricane Sandy, according to CBS Philadelphia. After the superstorm hit, the family feared the worst.
"We were thinking that he passed, he may have been struck and, you know, we hoped that if he is alive that someone is taking care of him," Miguel Cruz told the outlet.
On Tuesday, police called the Cruz family to notify them that their long-lost pet had been found.
At first, members of the family thought the call was an April Fools' prank, since Wesley had been missing so long, WABC reported. But, sure enough, when they arrived at the police station, they realized that the yellow Labrador was their Wesley -- he was just about 20 pounds heavier. 
Happy Ending.

A very rare historical nude picture of football legends King Pelé and Kaiser Franz Beckenbauer (both men pictured above) in what seems to be a locker room in the 60s has made its way to the internet. Pelé is full frontal nude in the photo, while Beckenbauer (younger him pictured right) is also nude but backing the camera. Beckenbauer is generally regarded as one of the greatest German footballers of all time and one of the most decorated footballers in the history of the game and twice won European Footballer of the Year. He is 69 now. While Pelé is widely regarded as the greatest player of all time and has been named World Player of the Century by many groups. He is 74 now. See the photo below...
