US Navy veteran Rudy Armstrong 86 and his dog a Chihuahua named Bubu were spending time together on a house boat. As Rudy was enjoying the pleasant weather, sipping a cup of coffee while sitting on a chair. All of sudden he suffered a stroke and he could not move his arms and legs. His dog sensed that there was something wrong with his master and ran to the deck master who inturn informed 911 who arrived within minutes. Rude was admitted to the local hospital and is now out of danger. All the while the dog waited patiently for his master and remained close by. As Rudy's health improved the dog was allowed to meet his master . Everyone praised the dog's role in saving his master's life. Truly dogs love their master unconditionally and will do everything to protect them.

That's a lovely picture and Bubu has faithfully saved his master's life by sensing the danger right in time and acting smartly. It's amazing how they identify even a slight change in our mood or behaviour.

yes dogs recognise can identify changes in our mood and behaviour. That's what helped the Navy veteran in saving his life by his beloved dog.

@jayanth_77 Yes, that's very true. Just this morning I had a mild stomach ache and I actually didn't even express it much but somehow my puppy promptly identified it, left what he was playing with and came to comfort me. They are indeed so loving. They're there for you whenever you feel down even if you had not done much for them. Better than some humans out there who promptly disappear when you need them.

@Miracle_Maya Yes a dog will always keep his eyes and eyers open and will frequently check his owner's wellbeing.

That is a very smart dog. In the case of the old man, it is sad that he was enjoying his house boat and the stroke spoiled everything.

The old man must be thankful to the dog to get a 2nd chance to live . If it wasn't for the dog he would have lost his life.

@Alexandoy yes. It's good that the retired Navy is in pretty good health and is able to enjoy a healthy retired life.
