Man finds his dog in debris left by tornado


After storms and tornadoes passed through North Alabama, Greg Cook rushed home. While there wasn’t much left of it, he was able to find his dog, Coco, in the debris.

Cook crawled through a window of his home in East Limestone and found Coco soaking wet and shaking in a hallway.

“It was just such a relief,” Cook told WAFF. “I love my dog, he’s my best friend and I was just so happy to see him.”

It’s so grim when you think you’ve lost everything but when love survives it means the world. I hope he and the dog and all those who lost so much a better road ahead.
