Dogs became a faithful companion of man about 30 thousand years ago and since then they have amazed people with their devotion. Often dogs show such strong and sincere feelings for their owners that people can only be surprised, because they are not always capable of such love for their neighbor.
Dogs are very sensitive, they are not capable of betrayal or falsehood, they return kindness for kindness, and sometimes they help even those people who they don’t know at all.
This story, which happened in the Altai Territory five years ago, can be called a story of heroism, but it can also be called a terrible event. Residents of one of the villages noticed a dog in the morning. The animal lay simply in the senega, because of the high snowdrift it was almost invisible.
It was the middle of winter, a lot of snow fell, and the frost reached 25 degrees. A dog in such conditions could not live long on the street, so people rushed to her aid.
When people approached, the animal rose from the snowdrift and then the astonished locals realized that there was more than one animal in the snow. In the same snowdrift lay a child who looked to be a little over two years old. It turned out that the dog did not move from its place and risked freezing in the snow in order to warm the baby at least a little with its warmth.
Local residents immediately contacted the doctors and the police. According to doctors, the baby only caught a little cold, but if it were not for the help of the dog and the timely intervention of people, the consequences could have been much worse. The dog was named Hero.
This story is another confirmation of the incredible devotion of dogs and their willingness to sacrifice themselves for the sake of man.
