Neighbor’s Dog Rescues 89-Year-Old Man
He fell and couldn’t get up.
An 89-year-old guy in Canada named Mickey fell outside while trying to move his snowblower, and his neighbor’s dog saved him. He tried to get up, but couldn’t. His neighbor’s seven-year-old rescue pup named Rosa heard him yelling for help. Rosa’s barking got her owner’s attention, who came out to investigate what she was barking at.
Mickey served as a police officer for more than 30 years, said this was the first time he’s found himself on the other side of an emergency. Mickey ended up with some stitches in his knee, but he’ll be okay. “I brought her some cookies the next day,” he said with a smile. “She’s a lifesaver. I think so, anyway.”
