‘If it weren’t for my dog barking like heck just opened up, who knows if that young boy would have ever been found.’: The story of the heroic golden retriever who saved a missing toddler and was rewarded with praise and pets from police officers

Dogs, some say they are angels, others posit that they have super powers, whatever it is that makes them so special it is hard to say, but it is undeniable that they have the ability to do things that us hoomans could only dream off. And today's story centers around a case of a canine doing exactly the kind of things that have earedt them their reputation. For this person's canine child, much in the style of Lassie, began losing its mind when it spotted a child walking through a neighbor's home.

While this might not have set off alarm bells in any of our hooman minds, this canine child knew that something was up and was adamant that his hooman pay attention and do something to help. And thanks to this doggo's clever intuitions, a young boy was saved from who knows what. So the moral of the story is, listen to your doggos, there is a good chance they know what they are barking about.
