Disaster and devastation have dominated this week’s headlines after the killer storms. Here’s a story with a happy ending.
The Wood family of Piedmont, Oklahoma took shelter in a “safe room” on Tuesday afternoon as a tornado ripped apart their three-story home, but they weren’t able to round up their family pet, a boxer named Roxie.
After the storm passed, the Woods found their home in shambles and Roxie missing.
But a day later, they got some good news — and oil rig worker nearly two miles away had found Roxie in a field. The dog somehow managed to survive the storm with just a scratch on her front leg, much to the delight of eight-year-old Paisley Wood.
