Relevant offers
Tinker Bell has been reunited with her owners after a 70mph (113kph) gust of wind picked up the six-pound (2.7kg) Chihuahua and tossed her out of sight.
Dorothy and Lavern Utley credit a pet psychic for guiding them on Monday to a wooded area nearly a mile from where 8-month-old Tinker Bell had been last seen. The brown long-haired dog was dirty and hungry but otherwise okay.
The Utleys, of Rochester, had set up an outdoor display Saturday at a flea market in Waterford Township, 25 miles northwest of Detroit. Tinker Bell was standing on their platform trailer when she was swept away.
Dorothy Utley told The Detroit News that her cherished pet "just went wild" upon seeing her.
