Country singer Craig Strickland is still missing after his boat capsized during a duck hunt in Oklahoma over the weekend, but his family got a sign of hope on Monday when Craig’s dog Sam -- who joined the singer and friend Chase Morland on the trip -- was found alive.

“For everyone wanting to know, Sam is fine,” Craig's wife, Helen Strickland, shared on Tuesday, along with a picture of the labrador retriever. “He was a brave boy. He wouldn't leave Chase's body until the Warden found him.”
