    Miracle Dog of the Day: A 5-year-old beagle who somehow managed to survive 17 minutes inside a gas chamber at an Alabama dog shelter is now up for adoption.

    Nicknamed the “miracle dog,” Daniel was slated to be put to sleep by the overcrowded shelter. The three other dogs placed inside the gas chamber with him did not survive the ordeal, but Daniel was found not only alive, but well, and wagging his tail.

    Pilots N Paws flew Daniel out to a New Jersey-based rescue, where he is currently waiting to be rehomed. According to Elevent Hour Rescue president Rachel Schiller, he likely won’t be waiting long.

    After Daniel’s story appeared in The Star-Ledger, Schiller received over 200 emails from people interested in adopting Daniel.

    “We have dogs that are just as wonderful as him that were on death row, but didn’t walk out of a gas chamber,” reminds Schiller. “They’re happy and they’re wagging their tales and ready to be adopted.”

      Why is it that people only want the dog AFTER it’s survived being shoved in a gas chamber? Why didn’t anyone want him...
