A dog is left for dead and her care takers say its a miracle she's alive.
A month ago, Crystal was thrown from a moving vehicle in Williamsburg.
The dog was saved when another driver saw her on the side of the road.
Last week, Cyrstal underwent two surgeries in Ames. We showed you the therapy she was going through at an Ames animal hospital, just so she could walk again.
Today, she's under the careful watch of a foster family in Cedar Rapids. Crystal is adapting to this brace that keeps her knees immobilized.
She's tired and weak.
"Crystal will never tell you that though. She'll walk on those front two legs. Its amazing what her spirit is like," said Rinthea Satterlee, director of Safe Haven of Iowa County.
If it weren't for the donations, Satterlee says Crystal could have been euthanize. Crystal will go back to Ames to get her braces off and she'll spend three weeks there rehabbing.

Inmates assaulted officers at prison facility
November 20, 2009 17:36 EST
CORALVILLE, Iowa (AP) -- The Iowa Department of Corrections is investigating a pair of assaults on officers at its Oakdale Medical and Classification Center near Coralville.
The department reported Friday that the attacks took place on Nov. 15 and are also being investigated by the Coralville Police Department.
Officials say that in one assault, 22-year-old convicted kidnapper and robber Earl Griffin punched a guard in the shoulder and face, harming the guard's teeth and blacking both of his eyes. The attack occurred shortly after Griffin had received his medication in the facility's pill line.
The department says that a short time later, 18-year-old convicted murderer Damion Seats punched another officer in the face and neck.
Both Griffin and Seats have since been transferred to the Iowa State Penitentiary.
