An 89 year old man on Manitoulin Island got an unexpected rescue thanks to a very attentive neighbor dog.
After slipping on the snow while moving his snowblower, he found himself unable to get back on his feet and growing more worried by the minute.
With no other options, he started calling out for help, hoping someone might hear him.
Next door, a seven year old rescue dog named Rosa started barking at the door, something her owner knew was unusual. When she took Rosa outside to investigate, she heard the calls and quickly found her neighbor and got him the help he needed.
The retired police officer says it was the first time he had ever been on the other side of an emergency, and he made sure to thank Rosa with cookies the very next day.
