A Jack Russell cross named Milo ran away from an airport handler while his owners were leaving for a flight back to Swansea, Wales.
According to Jason Whatnall, learning that his dog was missing from the pet handling firm had been “extremely concerning and upsetting”.
Australia’s Melbourne-based Aeropets has been contacted for comment.
After an internet search was launched, Milo was seen multiple times.
However, Lenny Thomas of Petraveller, another Melbourne pet handling business that assisted in his discovery, claimed that he was also “very fast.”
