PARIS — A Jack Russell terrier has survived after being poisoned and buried alive, and he can thank the man who saw the ground wiggle.
Ethan came back to life on his third birthday after someone tried to kill him. He had a whole chain of saviors: the random pedestrian who dug him up, the firefighters who rushed him off and a veterinarian who nursed him back to life.
Sabrina Zamora, president of an animal association in Charleville-Mezieres, France, said Friday the little white dog with a black ear was “flat as a pancake” when he was dug up from his grave Tuesday near a lakeside pedestrian path.
He is now making a good recovery, according to a vet. Ethan was microchipped. Police contacted his owner, who says he had given the dog away, but police are investigating, Zamora said.
