Dogs are not just man’s most reliable friend but also a man’s savior! They have demonstrated their heroic instincts many times.
Some save their owners from fires, while others defend their humans from burglars. There are even dogs who work as lifeguards.
Another act of canine heroism happened in Croatia. One pooch saved his owner’s life, who was stranded on a mountain. He stayed with the injured hiker for over 10 hours until rescuers reached them.
The accident at the mountain
According to a news outlet, a hiker named Grga Brkic was traveling through the Velebit mountains with his dog when the unexpected happened. He fell and sustained a rather serious injury. As a result, he couldn’t move.
Two other mountaineers were hiking with Grga. However, they were not able to reach him. Worried about their friend’s safety, they decided to call the rescue service.
The rescue team searched the mountain and eventually found Grga. They were amazed North, the hiker’s eight-month-old Alaskan Malamute, didn’t leave him. He was lying on top of Grga for 13 hours, protecting his human from the mountain’s chilly winds.
