HERO DOG BREAKS WINDOW, ALERTS NEIGHBOR
In Northvale, New Jersey, a dog saved the life of its owner, a woman who suffered a medical emergency and lay unconscious inside her home for several days. Two women were walking near the home shortly before 8 p.m. Friday when they heard glass break and a dog barking loudly. The women called police. Arriving officers called out for anyone inside the home to come out but there was no response. The officers then entered the home, where they found the resident unconscious. EMTs arrived and transported the resident to a local hospital for treatment. The dog suffered a minor injury to a front paw from breaking the window. Police believe that the dog inside the home heard the two women talking as they walked past the home and broke the glass with its paws in an attempt to get their attention, which led to their owner being rescued.
* And while the woman was in the hospital, the dog cleaned up the broken glass and reglazed the window.
* Of course, the dog might have been thinking, “Hey, ladies! I’m starving here!” But the rescue is a good story.
* He could also have been thinking, “No way am I gonna die in New Jersey.”
* Once again, “Stuff Your Pet Cat Would Never Do.”
* This is so much better than those stories where the dog eats his owner’s diabetes toes while he’s sleeping.
* It’s nice but it would have been nicer on Day 1.
* And now the dog will do this anytime it wants to go out on a walk.
* Look at us…we finally get some cooperation from the animal world and we make fun of it.
* Most animals wouldn’t think about helping us. We never have to be thankful for a heroic shark.
