"What's that Lassie? There's a fire in the workshop?"

Not Lassie, Buddy:
One Alaska man is truly grateful for his best friend, after his German Shephard [sic] 'Buddy' saved his life - with the help of a state trooper who was quick enough to recognize the animal's signals.

And now Buddy the dog has been honored for his quick thinking and absolute determination to ensure his owner was saved.

There's video at the link showing the dog leading the trooper to the fire. The dog would look back periodically to make sure that the trooper was still there.

As someone who was once fortunate to have a German Shepherd, I heartily approve of this story.

  1. Meanwhile, Buddy's thinking, "Sure was smart of that human trooper to follow me back to the house. Didn't think humans were that smart".
