Family Hails Dog as Hero

Duke the family dog may not look like your ordinary hero, but he has saved a precious life.

One weekend, the owners had just settled into bed when Duke came running into the room and shaking them with urgency. Duke usually was extremely obedient, so right then the couple knew something was wrong. They hurried over to check if something was wrong with their little baby girl, and sure enough she wasn’t breathing. They immediately called 911 and the baby turned out okay, but surely without Duke’s help and quick reaction things would not be the same.

The family admits that they’re blessed to have the amazing dog and that their decision to adopt Duke six years ago was repaid many times over.

Now all of you dog owners, go and show your dog some love, because you never know what they might do to help you in times of need.
