Astonishing video shows a poodle being rescued alive despite being trapped for 29 days in the rubble of a building that collapsed during the Venezuela earthquakes.
Those earthquakes killed more than 5,500 people.
The poodle, named Beyli, was found covered in dust when rescuers discovered him last week.
He was curled up next to the body of his owner’s dead mother.
This was reported by Diario de Morelos.
Beyli became trapped when two devastating earthquakes struck the Venezuelan port city of Catia La Mar on June 24.
One was a magnitude 7.2 earthquake.
The other was a magnitude 7.5 earthquake.
The building where Beyli lived was destroyed.
The video shows him getting water from firefighters as he was first rescued from the rubble.
Remarkably, he is expected to make a full recovery.
This is despite going without food or water for a month.
“Really it is a miracle,” a vet known only as Mirna said.
“It is a miracle everything that has happened with him.”
“He has some ulcers in the eyes, but soon he will be fine.”
Beyli’s owner is Victoria Isabel Rengel.
She is 11 years old.
She lost her mom and her grandma in the quakes.
She has since been reunited with Beyli.
The pair are now living in a rescue center.
Beyli is not the only pooch that has been found alive and rescued.
Days after the earthquakes struck, a video went 𝓿𝒾𝓇𝒶𝓁.
It showed Caracas firefighters pulling a dog from the rubble of a home.
Another dog, known only as Giselle, was rescued five days after the twin earthquakes struck.
Those earthquakes happened in under 40 seconds.
More than 5,500 people were killed in the earthquakes.
Another 16,700 people were injured.
Thousands remain homeless one month on.
