KYS and Teena. I saw both those shows! Still can't phathom how that dog pulled that man hunting! He collapsed in the field, was unconcious, having suffered a heart attack, and the dog pulled him almost 2 miles to an inhabited area where help was available. What incredible strength; emotional and physical!! Sort of like the mother who lifts up the car front to free her child. Amazing what miracles are born of love. And the fireman story! That was a great one too. The dog (Rottie) sensed, while jogging with his human, that the fireman was about to become seriously ill, and refused to run anymore, lying instead on the ground, feigning illness, until he agreed to return home. All the while the human thinking it was the dog that was sick!! Within minutes of returning home, the fireman had chest pains and a heart attack!! I think your dogs were true heroes too, Adoremydogs! They wern't acting aggressively; they were protecting their human!! Every day I hear something else, another story, that reaffirms my devotion to my dogs. Some think my love for them is just too much. I know better!! Just incredible animals!
