A PUPPY that survived for five days in a locked car in Dublin by licking condensation on a window is still waiting to be reunited with its owner.
The resilient puppy was stranded when his owner forgot where he had parked his car during a shopping trip to Dublin last Friday.
A passer-by spotted the pup after an appeal was launched by the Dublin Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (DSPCA) and he was liberated from the car, parked on the quays, shortly afterwards.
However, according to the DSPCA, the owner, who is from Monaghan, lost his bearings once again on his way to the animal shelter on Wednesday night and had to return to his home in Monaghan instead.
