I love stories when a dog saves the day. Usually, it's some kind of trained search and rescue dog or a professional K-9 police dog. This time it was a wee Chihuahua named Belle. Two girls, ages 5-8 got lost in the woods surrounding their home in Georgia. Police and firefighters (along with trained tracker dogs) could not find the lost girls and had been searching for hours. A neighbor heard the commotion outside and noticed his Chi was going crazy. He let the dog out and Belle immediately picked up the girls scent and led authorities right to the lost girls! Both children love Belle and play with her everyday. Yay! for hero Chihuahuas. Both girls are fine and now reunited with their parents. I hope some dog-food company donates free kibble for a year to Belle's owner. He seemed like a very nice man.
Read the story yourself and watch the video of
Bell the heroic rescuer.
Since the pictures of Bell said "all rights reserved, blah-blah-blah, Linda decided to feature another Chihuahua. Our very own Chimi! I know if I ever got lost, he would track me down in an instant.
