KAMLOOPS, B.C. - Some pets are wanderers, but one Labrador-retriever from Montreal is more ambitious than most.

Suki is about to be reunited with her Quebec family after a one year, 4,500 kilometre separation.

The black pooch has turned up, safe and healthy, in the southern interior city of Kamloops, B.C.

SPCA spokeswoman Sarah Gerow says the Montreal owners were shocked and overjoyed when their pet was identified by a microchip after being brought in by a Good Samaritan.

Gerow says there's no indication how Suki made her incredible journey, but a grant from the SPCA will pay for a quicker, more direct trip home.

Suki should be eating from her own dog dish by later this week. (CHNL
