(CBS) -- A dog missing since the tornado tore through downstate Washington more than a week ago has been re-united with his owner, reports WBBM's Mike Krauser.

Dog Found Alive In Rubble More Than 1 Week After Washington Tornado

His name is Dexter, a six-month old pit bull and he has been missed by his owner Jacob Montgomery, an MP in the Illinois National Guard whose third floor apartment was torn apart by the tornado.

He posted an ad online with a lot of pictures asking that if anyone sees Dexter to contact him.

Dexter was found Tuesday morning in the rubble alive. Comparing the before and after pictures he has obviously lost a lot of weight and his ribs are showing. He was being checked out by a vet and has been reunited with his owner.
