Update on Mason the “Tornado Dog”

by Amanda · 1 comment

I shared a story a couple weeks ago about Mason, a dog that was carried away by one of the tornadoes in Alabama and crawled his way home two weeks later with two broken legs. I’m happy to share an update that Mason had surgery on his broken legs, is doing well, and should be able to go home with his family. Watch the videos from Morning Express with Robin Meade below for more details!

Missing Cat Comes Home During Interview

by Amanda · 1 comment

Yesterday I shared a story from CNN about a dog that walked home on two broken legs after the Alabama tornadoes. Today I have another amazing pet reunion story about a cat that had gone missing during the tornadoes last month and just happened to come home while his owner was being interviewed. I think the purr says it all!
