8. That was painful to watch - until it wasn't.

It was also heartwarming. The rescuers were amazing.

Thanks for another great post.

10. I remeber seeing a video posted here that was similar but

with a medium sized dog and 4 or 5 guys who rescued it from rushing waters someplace in the US. It made my day, so did this.
