Dog finds owner after five years, four changes of address

You'd almost think this little dog had a built-in GPS.

A shaggy-haired Shih Tzu named Prince - missing for five years - has found his way home even though his owner moved four times since he disappeared.

Myrna Carrillo got the cute pooch when he was just a puppy, and had him for three years before he went missing from her mother's house in Delano, Calif., NBC News reports.

"It was sad you know, because I was really attached to him," Carillo said.

Carillo got married, had two children and moved four times in the five years that Prince was missing.

Then this week, she arrived home a shocking site - the fuzzy pup perched on her front stoop. It was Prince.

"I was a bit scared more than anything, because I didn't know if I was seeing something or what," Carrillo said.

Prince, on the other hand, appears to be nothing short of ecstatic to be reunited with his owner and her family.

Video footage shows the cuddly tan-coated canine nuzzling Carrillo's two young children and snuggling up to her husband....
