A Pennsylvania family was reunited with their beloved dog after the small canine1 managed to survive being carried away by an eagle.

Monica Newhard said her brother was letting the familys four dogs, including bichon frise2 Zoey, out to play in the familys yard on Tuesday afternoon when the man spotted3 an eagle that swooped4 down near the house.

Newhard said the eagle quickly carried 8-pound Zoey out of sight.

“Never crossed my mind that that would ever happen,” she said. “Never were we looking or ever thinking that our dog would be alive.”

Zoeys tale had not yet ended, however, as Christina Hartman spotted an unusual white object in a road about four miles from the Newhard home about two hours after the eagles swooping.

“I see a little spot in the road, white spot,” Hartman said. She said she initially thought it was snow, not she soon realized it was a dog.

Hartman took Zoey home and gave her some food and a place to rest. She went online and quickly saw Newhards Facebook post about the dog being taken by an eagle. The post, which had been shared by one of Hartmans friends, included a photo of Zoey.

The family was reunited with their dog later.

Newhard updated her Facebook post with news about Zoeys safe arrival home. She said a stranger offered her a large crate5 that would allow the dogs to play outside without fear of attacks from above.

賓夕法尼亚州一户家庭和他们的爱狗重新团聚。这条小狗在被老鹰叼走之后幸存了下来。

莫妮卡·纽哈德说,周二下午,她的兄弟把包括在比熊犬佐伊在内的四条小狗放出到院子里玩耍,这时候一只老鹰向房子附近猛扑下来。

纽哈德说,老鹰很快叼走了8磅重的佐伊。

她说:“我从未料到会发生这个,我们也不曾指望我们的狗狗能活下来,我们想都没想过。”

然而,佐伊的故事并没结束。老鹰突袭约两小时后,克里斯蒂娜·哈特曼在距离纽哈德家大约4英里处的路上发现了一个白色物体。

“我在路上看到了一个小白点,”哈特曼说。她说她一开始以为那是雪,但很快她意识到那是条狗。

哈特曼把佐伊带了回家,给它吃住。她上网时,很快看到了纽哈德在脸书上关于她的狗被老鹰叼走的帖子。这个帖子是哈特曼的一个朋友转发的,帖子里有一张佐伊的照片。

之后,这一家和狗重新团聚。

纽哈德在脸书上更新了佐伊安全回家的消息。她说,一个陌生人给了她一个大板箱,能让狗狗们在外面玩耍,不用害怕受到上空的袭击。
