Pawmazing Dog Saves The Life Of An Autistic Baby, Fiercely Protecting Him As He Runs Out Into The Street Unattended

Animals are amazing. We can never say that enough. Having pets is something that has changed our lives over and over. And we try, as much as possible, to appreciate them for everything that they do for us. We try to remind ourselves constantly of just how lucky we are to have them, how sad life would be without them. We thank them for the little things - the joy they bring us, and the calm, and the love. It's the little things that make pet ownership as special and pawfect as it is.

And sometimes, there are big things too, and those things truly remind us of how thankful we should be. It's moments like when a dog saves its owner from a rattlesnake bite and survives, or a parrot saves the life of a 2-year-old toddler by loudly warning her babysitter that she was choking, or when a cat saves the life of a freezing baby by curling around it all night and then going out to get help. Or moments like the one we're covering today - of a heroic dog fiercely protecting the life of a baby who ran into the street unattended.

Dogs are beyond amazing. We all appreciate them, of course. We appreciate the joy that they bring into our lives, the unconditional love that they give us, the softness and calm that simply surrounds them when they're happy. But what we need to appreciate even more than we do is just how much they would be willing to sacrifice for us.

This family is so lucky to have this dog. A minute alone on the street for a baby this age, autistic or not, could be life or death. Luckily, this adorable child has a pawdorable security doggo who loves him so much, he'd clearly be willing to do anything to protect him.
