Miracle: The Extraordinary Dog that Refused to Die
Snatched from the streets of Thailand, loaded onto a truck with hundreds of other stolen dogs, and destined for the restaurants of Hanoi, Miracle the dog shouldn’t be alive today. But an incredible rescue led to a fateful meeting with Amanda Leask, a dog lover from Scotland. Devastated by Miracle’s plight and the hopelessness of his situation, she knew she had to do everything in her power to save him. But Amanda could never have imagined that in doing so she was really saving herself. Amanda’s six year-old son Kyle, who was born with cerebral palsy and autism, built a deep and lasting connection with Miracle, and their special bond has transformed not only Kyle’s life but that of the entire family. Heartbreaking, inspirational, and ultimately life-affirming, this incredible tale is proof that miracles really can happen.
