A pet skunk has been found a month after it went missing.

Dottie vanished at a dog show in north Devon and her owner Sarah was so desperate to relocate her that she called in the local clairvoyant Becky Willoughby who predicted that the smelly animal would be found near a garden shed.

Just days after she appealed for help, which also made its rounds on social media, Sarah received a phone call from someone claiming the -month-old skunk had been found beneath a garden shed in Barnstaple, according to the Metro newspaper.
