Dog Saves Its Owner’s Life When He Has A Stroke
This story is pretty unbelievable. A man who is 86 had a stroke on his houseboat and couldn’t get to his phone…so he told his Chihuahua to get help…and ended up saving his life.
Rudy Armstrong lives on a houseboat in North Carolina with his Chihuahua, Boo-Boo.
Last week when Rudy had a stroke, he couldn’t get to his phone to call for help, so he told his dog to “go get help”…and that’s what Boo-Boo did. He found the dockmaster who called 911.
Rudy was in the hospital for 5 days before he was reunited with Boo-Boo.
GOOD GIRL! Boo-Boo was able to save Armstrong's life and get help when his owner was suffering a stroke. https://t.co/yaTz7pOlbb
