From Washington state comes the story of a senior citizen being saved by his senior canine, who risked her life obstructing traffic in order to find help.
On September 25th, the unnamed, 84-year-old owner of this beautiful pooch named Gita, fell, hurt his leg, and couldn’t move.
Gita then ran down to the main road where she stood on the paving lines waiting for someone to stop.
That someone was Deputy Wright, who was patrolling that particular area of Stevens County. Seeing neither house nor owner, Wright alighted on the road to try and get Gita into his patrol car, but the dog wouldn’t budge.

"Sensing something amiss, Wright went back to the dog which was now lying on the centerline," a statement from the Sheriff's office read.
