The Hero Dog

Well pooh! The video was taken down - here's the article

It was amazing, a dog was hit by a car in Chile and another dog tried to pull him to safety.

Speaking of pulling dogs to safety Janay and I pulled two lovely, neglected, skinny ridgebacks from a local shelter this evening.

You can read about them here - Bunny and Buck

Bunny is going to spend a week here.

She is frightened but also just came out of getting spayed so she's tired too. My dogs are giving her lots of space. I was so PROUD of Big Dumb Puppy. I put a crate out for her and she's been sleeping in it. The door is open so she can come out but she hasn't. Earlier BDP came in and laid in front of the crate, about 3 feet away just waiting for her to come out but giving her space to feel comfortable!!! I think they all understand we're helping out friends!

Good for you for taking them in! They are obviously in good hands:)

BDP seems like a dog's dog. They sure look thin, in a way it is good the owner realized they could no longer give them proper care...

Thanks for the article.

Bunny's a cutie, though quite skinny. It still amazes me how many people get dogs and don't care for them properly. They should be part of the family! Scully's food is bought before mine! ;-) (I know you know how that is...)

Awwww, Bunny and Buck are so sweet! I read all about them and wish they could come play with me sometime! :) That's great that they get to stay with you for awhile...hope they can find a good home soon! People really should require training and a license before they can get a dog!
