    Rottie saved from icy water

    Here is a story from my local news last night that will warm your hearts on this cold cold morning. I am always amazed at the selfless acts of people on behalf of animals. Rusty is alive today due to a tremendous act of bravery. I hope you can view the video.

    What a heartwarming story, I also watched the video. I'm so happy for this rottie and his human.

    Glad that there were these two men who had the heart to help him!

    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    this is a wonderful story, God certainly did send two angels that day to help him, what a sad thing if he had end up drowning. Thank God there are wonderful people out there.

    I just love happy endings. I am so glad they saw Rusty and had the
    good heart to rescue him from certain death.

    p.s.Did anyone else think that Rusty looked a little like a Rotti/St.Bernard mix?
