We don’t deserve dogs, but we are grateful to have them. Last week, a 65-year-old man fell through the ice on Arbutus Lake in Michigan. A witness called 911 immediately and an officer responded right away, equipped with rescue equipment and a body cam. The ice was too thin to support the officer, but the victim had his dog Ruby with him.
Ruby responded to instructions from her master and the officer, and began to play the most important game of fetch in her life, bringing a rope and a rescue disc to the victim. Ruby is not a trained rescue dog, but her actions allowed the officer and an assisting firefighter to drag the man across the thin ice to safety. He was taken to a hospital, treated, and released. We have no doubts that Ruby was treated to a steak dinner when all was said and done. That’s a good dog. -via Boing Boing
