While David Loop was driving, he spotted what he thought was a dead white dog lying in the middle of a Los Angeles road. So he pulled over to move her body out of the road. But he discovered that the body wasn't lifeless.
"I was about to leave and I saw her eyes blink," Loop explained on his Facebook page. "So I ran back to my car and grabbed a litter pan and put her in it and rushed her to my vet."
The dog had a broken femur, with ticks all over her body and possible internal injuries. Loop fell in love with the dog and visited her often while she was at the vet, The Dodo reported.
"She started whining and my heart melted, literally melted in my chest," he wrote. He then named the dog, "Miracle."
Miracle began to gain strength as she started to eat on her own and become aware of her surroundings. When she was strong enough, she had surgery to repair her broken bones. After the surgery, going home with Loop was the next step.
"I hope that she has touched your heart like she has mine," Loop wrote on his Facebook page, thanking his friends and family for their support. "I can only hope that these events will bring us all together and remember ... Be kind, love people ... and animals too."
The medical care for Miracle cost so much, Loop opened a fundraiser page where he surpassed his $8,000 goal.
