CNN —An Australian sailor who spent months adrift in the Pacific Ocean alongside his beloved dog has recounted his remarkable tale of surviving on raw fish and rainwater after finally making it safely back to dry land. Sailor Timothy Lyndsay Shaddock and his dog Bella survived on raw fish and rainwater after being stranded for three months in the Pacific Ocean. CNNThe pair were eventually spotted in the Eastern Pacific Ocean “more than 1,200 miles from land,” according to Grupomar, the company that owns the tuna boat, in a tweet on Monday. The boat’s crew, led by Captain Óscar Meza Oregón, provided Shaddock with medical attention, hydration, and food, according to Grupomar. “I don’t know how far out in the ocean again I’ll be, you know, but I think I just love the nature,” he said.
