A heroic dog in Michigan is the sole reason a man is alive today. “Bob” slipped and broke his neck retrieving firewood on New Year’s Day in freezing temperatures, and nobody was around to help.
Heroic dog saves owner’s life by keeping him from freezing


The man, thinking he was making a quick trip outside, wasn’t dressed for the freezing temperatures and found himself laying in the snow screaming, hoping someone would find him. Luckily his golden retriever did. Kelsey, a five-year-old, kept Bob alive by laying on top of him to keep his body warm up. In addition, she licked his face to keep him awake.
Bob lost his voice screaming, but Kelsey kept barking all night long — until a neighbor found the man and took him to hospital. Independent spoke to the doctor in charge of caring for Bob and it’s his belief that the dog absolutely kept her owner alive.
Such an incredibly good dog. All the treats for life. The man knows just how lucky he was to have his faithful pup when he needed her the most.
“I am so thankful for my two heroes. Kelsey kept me warm, alert, and never stopped barking for help. Dr Colen saved my life and ability to move. They are truly heroes and I will be eternally grateful.”
