Daniel, survivor of the gas chamber, finds his forever home

A dog who survived an Alabama gas chamber has a new home. Daniel, who was supposed to be put to sleep with other dogs, amazed workers at the animal control facility when he survived the carbon monoxide gas unscathed. He was taken to Eleventh Hour Rescue in New Jersey.

There were more than 100 requests from people interested in Daniel, but he has found his new home with Joe Dwyer and his family, and their four other rescue dogs in Nutley. Paying tribute to Daniel's incredible attitude, Mr Dwyer reported that a trip to the veterinarian showed the dog to be in “extremely good shape”, despite what he went through.

Joe Dwyer, a 50-year-old motivational speaker and dog trainer, plans to use Daniel to fight for laws outlawing gas chambers and in posters for pet adoptions. Daniel recently took part in a rally in Pennsylvania for a bill that would ban gas chambers in that state. The bill has the support of two-thirds of the state Senate and is called 'Daniel's Law'.

Mr Dwyer is determined that Daniel won't be exploited though, confirming “his life as a part of this family is paramount”. Daniel and his four new doggy friends at the Dwyer home are reported to be getting along well.

As much as I am pleased for Daniel, what about all the doggies facing the chamber today... tomorrow?

Aw poor daniel, he must of been terrified. To watch his fellow dogs around him suffer like that. So sad.
