A Pomeranian aptly named Pom Pom has miraculously survived being swallowed by a tornado and flung 300m from her home in NSW

The pint-sized 1.5kg canine was finally given the green light to return home after spending two weeks recovering from the wild storm at a vet.

Pom Pom's owner Scott McKinnon lost his home at Meadow Flat near Lithgow on the NSW Central Tablelands in just 30 seconds on September 30.

Three people were injured by the wild tornado that tore through the small town west of Sydney and damaged houses, powerlines and trees.

Along with the damaging winds and horizontal rain, terrified residents also reported large hailstones as the twister swept through the community. 

Pom Pom was lifted off the ground by the powerful winds and spun in circles 20 metres in the air before ending up in a nearby paddock, the ABC reported. 

The little dog was left with a punctured lung and multiple broken ribs with her devastated owners assuming they had lost her among the chaos. 

'We gave up on Pom,' Mr McKinnon admitted.
