This dog, which helped rescuers find the owner, was hailed as a hero.
In early May, the police and volunteers participated in the search in the suburbs of Houston, Texas (USA). A woman with dementia disappeared for 3 days. Her dog, who helped rescuers find her, was hailed as a hero.
Sherry Knopp went missing on Tuesday, May 3, much to the dismay of her family. A resident of Texas, USA, Katie went for a walk with her Labrador Retriever named Max, when the drama happened.
For 3 days, a 60-year-old woman who was recently diagnosed with dementia was locked in a 3,000-hectare forest in George W. Bush Park. Her faithful four-legged companion never left her.
Max stayed by her side throughout this ordeal. It was thanks to him that the rescuers managed to find her.
On Friday, at about 3 o’clock, the rescue team was guided by the barking of a dog.
The survivor, who suffered from dehydration and bruises, was taken to the hospital.
The loyalty of dogs knows no bounds, and their love for their owners is unconditional.
