"It was love again at immediate sight", is how Dion Leonard describes the moment he was reunited with his adopted dog, Gobi.
The dog had joined the ultra-marathoner on a 250km (155 mile) run across China's Gobi desert last month.
They became inseparable, winning an online fanbase which helped fund Mr Leonard's plan to bring Gobi to the UK.
But earlier this week, the dog suddenly went missing, sparking an online campaign to find him.
The story of Dion and Gobi first captured hearts when news spread about how Gobi had followed him through his 250km run (155 miles) across mountain and desert areas across China.
"I started to speed off and I'm thinking this dog won't last the whole day but she was still with me at the end. From then on she didn't leave my side," he told the reporter at the time.
