It all happened in Moama, New South Wales, Australia. Here a dog hurried into the Murray River. He is a family dog, he had gone out with his owners one day in nature, but this will prove to be a tragic one.
A 27-year-old woman brought her 5- and 9-year-old children to the lake with a terrible intention: “I have to drown my children,” the woman, who remained anonymous, told her friends before traveling with the children to the lake.
The mother held the youngest child’s head underwater, then, when it was too late, let it go and his body began to float out to the lake. Unfortunately, his lifeless body has just been recovered…
But the other child was saved. Of whom? by the family pit bull. In order to recover the child, the dog had to bite him in order to be able to grab him better and to pull him out of the water.
Unfortunately, this small detail made the representatives of the authorities want to euthanize the poor animal-hero. But they failed to do so because an online petition signed by more than 50,000 people saved him at the last minute. The dog was rescued.
Here is what was said in the petition: “Buddy, the puppy, reacted and tried to save the boys, but in doing so he bit the big one. Unfortunately, he did not manage to save the little one, instead he bit his mother well ”.
