Three weeks ago, the beagle was euthanized along with 18 other dogs at an overcrowded animal shelter in Florence, Ala., on Oct. 3.

But to the shock of everyone he somehow survived.

When the animal control officer in charge of the operation returned to the locked chamber he found the dog waiting at the door, wagging its tail. The other dogs were dead.

His amazing survival has attracted several charitable groups to come to his aid to make sure he isn't sent back into the gas chamber. He found a temporary home in Tennessee with Karen Rudolph, who runs Schnauzer Savers Rescue of West Tennessee with her husband Michael.

All the people who now want to adopt this beagle all want to adopt because of the publiciity and they can continue to say he survived the gas chamber. Making themselves look good by adopting him. None of the other dogs that are out there to adopt will be sensationalized like this dog. same with the cat who survived being euthanized two times. America as we knew it back when we were kids is not here anymore. In this fast paced gimmee gimmee now, can't wait society things are going to hell in a hand basket. Kids are raised without moms or dads, no one has time anymore to teach your kids how to behave, and WORK for what you want and save till you have enough money to buy it. Mom and Dad work two jobs so they can give the kids what they want when they want.

i saw that on the news this morning. great story of survival.

Beagles are tough little dogs. We had a beagle who survived an impossible (according to the vets) medical situation. We attributed it to her stubbornness and determination. She just would not give up. Sometimes that stubborness is a good thing. Hope this little guy has a long and happy life.

Good for Daniel! Nice story!

Wow....

Amy Jo, gimme your address, I need to send you a hug and some cookies or something to brighten your day! :)

Hooray for Daniel some one held him close, but I feel for the others that lost their lives. The Gas Chamber, I thought went out years ago. How inhuman to gas anything, in Australian we use an injection.

Ditto.
