A man whose dog ran away while he was in a coma has been reunited with the pup thanks to strangers on social media. Bubba Nulisch, 58, was hospitalised with a bacterial infection and put into an induced coma on April 18.
After awaking from his coma three weeks later on May 9, he was desperate to see his four-year-old dog Bullet. However, while in hospital Bubba received a call to tell him his beloved pooch had gone missing from his home in Grand Prairie, Texas, US, on May 22.
Bubba was "inconsolable" when he discovered the disappearance of his "best friend". He had adopted Bullet after being forced to retire from his truck driving job for medical reasons in October 2015 and says the dog pulled him out of a "deep depression".
