A British dog has returned home after five years.

Iggy the Labrador was an 18-month-old puppy when he disappeared from his owners in 2005, but after being found wandering the streets 130 miles away, he has been reunited with his family half a decade later.

Owner Karen Howard - who was convinced Iggy had been stolen years ago - explained it was a microchip he'd been fitted with which finally identified her as the owner.

She said: "We had given up all hope. It is just so great to have him back - although I would never have recognised him. He has put on quite a bit of weight."
