    Dad & Brother saved a lady and dog - REUNITED!

    Mom and I had just gotten home from the beach and got a phone call from my brother. My dad and him had been fishing all afternoon.


    They had a lady and her dog in their boat that they had just saved from drowning. She was being pulled out by the current. They got her in the boat first and then she asked where he dog was. All they really got out of her was her dog's name, Vince.

    The lady is in stable conditon but at the hospital of course. We have her cell phone and her dog.

    Her cell phone is dead and we are trying to find a charger so we can get numbers of friends/family.

    If/as soon as I find a news story I'll post a link. I've got some pictures of Vince, too. He's a very calm dog and is doing okay. He is very sweet and is starting to settle down, although still pacing. I've got my dogs put away for now.


    They've given the lady our number and address for when she gets out of the hospital. We're calling the hospital now.


    Whew... my heart is still racing.



    Here's a quick picture of Vince.

    Oh my goodness, Kay. I think that lady lucked up on the right family. Vince is adorable. I'm so glad your dad and brother were there.

    Vince has now met Kiara. They are fine.

    We called the hospital and the lady is stable. We still have no contact with any of her family. No one was at the hospital yet.

    Vince, Ki, and I went for a walk and Vince is much more opened up. He is now laying on our couch.

    I forgot to add that this was all in the most intense part of our afternoon thunderstorms. It was raining, dark, windy, and very wavey.

    Awww kudos to your family!!

    The dog looks like a vizsla, poor guy must be wondering where his momma is.

    I hope she recovers soon and I'm glad he's doing well in your home.

    Yes, he's a Vizsla. My family kept asking what kind of dog he was, none of them have heard of his breed.

    I'm so worried about his owner... I hope she's okay and knows her dog is okay. Everyone send a thought or two her way, okay?


    Kiara joined him on the couch. He has his eyes closed but wakes up as soon as I move.

    Kay! You father and brother are HEROS!!! (I'm sure you've already figured that out, lol) Bless your family's hearts for saving the poor lady, and taking in her beautiful Vince. Vince is just adorable, and I love the picture of him and Kiara laying on the couch together.

    Vince and his mommy sure are lucky to be here thanks to your Dad and Brother. Poor pup must be so confused. He is in the best place for now and things will work out fine. I'm guessing your puppers will have him smiling in no time.

    Kay, you and your family are wonderful to assist this lady. I'm sure she will be forever grateful.

    Take care and try not to worry so much - everyone is safe now.

    Hugs,
