We have some friends in Indiana, who we have stayed with when passing through. We always thought very highly of them. They had an old golden retriever who jumped in their creek after the spring thaw. The current was fast, and the dog was old and couldn't climb out anymore and was foundering in the current. The man of the household jumped in and pulled him out, rather than watch him drown. We think more highly of them now. Were it my dog, I would have done the same. It's what you do for you pals.
