    MANCHESTER, New Hampshire (WMUR) — A runaway dog in Hudson is recovering at home after being hit by a car and surviving last week’s nor’easter.

According to Granite State Dog Recovery, Hera and her brother were struck by a car after escaping last month.

Her brother was quickly found hiding in a nearby garage and safely recovered, but Hera remained missing.

Rescuers believe Hera hid beneath a shed or deck for 10 days, enduring freezing temperatures and several inches of snow.

On Friday, someone spotted a dog matching Hera’s description.

She was found Saturday morning beside a home, and Hudson Animal Control rescued her using food and a humane trap.

The Hudson Police Department thanked community members who shared photos, called in tips and helped bring Hera home.
