Any dog’s love and devotion can feel like a miracle(奇迹). In a sense, Mason, a one-year-old dog, may be the most amazing one on the earth.

The long-legged dog in North Smithfield, Alabama, was caught in a storm in his family’s garage last spring. His family thought he would be safe there, but the storm broke the garage door and Mason disappeared.

Dozens of people died that day. Mason’s family were grateful just to be alive. But they were heartbroken at the thought that their sweet, playful companion had died. They combed the neighborhood, but Mason didn’t turn up.

Three weeks after the disaster, Mason’s family were surprised to find Mason on the front door, so ecstatic to see his family.

Where had Mason landed during the windstorm? What did he eat for those long weeks? How did he find his way back home?

There were no answers to those questions and no time to work them out. Mason was terribly thin and couldn’t stand properly. The family quickly sought help and learned their beloved dog had crawled(爬) home on broken front legs. “He was simply on his elbows(肘),” says Dr. Doster.

Doster had spent days reuniting pets with their owners and took an instant liking to the brave dog. He contacted iam Lamb of Vulcan Park Animal Care in Birmingham, who volunteered to perform the needed surgery for free. Lamb inserted two metal plates and 17 screws(螺丝钉) in an operation that lasted more than five hours.

Mason’s injuries were so significant that he required weeks of recovery to heal. By the time he returned home to his family in September, he was jumping around again. “There were no ill effects at all, which is a miracle in itself,” Doster says.
