If you’re a dog owner, you would do just about anything for your little pup. There is no mountain high enough, valley low enough, or river wide enough to keep you from staying with your pooch through thick and thin.

And these people take that notion quite literally. When you see them rescuing dogs from dangerous situations, you’ll be astounded by the number of risks they take for our canine companions.

Thank goodness people like this exist in the world! Because without them, these dogs might not have made it out alive.
