Jon Byler Dann assumed that his dog, Maggie, had met an unfortunate ending during the tornado that hit his town of Washington, Ill. But then something magical happened: They found her alive and well underneath the wreckage.
The photos, first captured by The Weather Channel and now going viral on photo site Imgur, show the amazing recovery.
Byler Dann and team dug through the rubble for whatever was left. They then heard a faint bark as they went through the area where their house had been just 30 hours prior.
Maggie had refused to leave her kennel when the storm first hit to join the family in the basement. They found her wrapped in carpeting underneath chunks of the house.
Byler Dann burst into tears when he was reunited with the shivering Maggie.
After some more hugs and water, Maggie was taken to the vet for a checkup.
Though she’s currently being checked out for injuries — local vets say she sustained broken bones and possibly some internal damage — Maggie is expected to make a full recovery.

Weather Channel’s website.
