A five-year-old dog named Kelsey has been praised as a hero for helping to save the life of her owner who slipped in the snow and broke his neck.
The man,Bob,was alone when he left his Michigan farmhouse on New Year's Eve to collect firewood.Expecting a journey of only several metres,Bob was wearing just long johns(襯褲),a shirt and slippers when he went outside,although the temperature was around -4℃.
After the accident,he was unable to move in the snow.Fortunately,Kelsey came to his assistance.
"I was shouting for help,but my nearest neighbour is about 400 metres away,and it was 10:30pm," Bob explained.But my Kelsey came.By the next morning,my voice was gone and I couldn't yell for help,but Kelsey didn't stop barking.
Kelsey's companion kept him warm by lying on top of him.She licked his face and hands to keep him awake."Kelsey kept barking but never left my side," Bob recalled."She kept me warm.I knew I couldn't give up and that it was my choice to stay alive."
Bob spent 20 hours in the freezing cold.When he finally lost consciousness,his dog kept barking.Finally,hearing the barking,Bob's neighbour discovered him at 6:30 pm on New Year's Day and called the emergency services at once.When Bob arrived in hospital,his body temperature was below 21℃.However,doctors were surprised to find that he didn't have any frostbite(凍瘡).They believed it was because of Kelsey's determination to keep him warm.Dr Chaim Colen,the doctor who treated Bob,said,"Animals can help and his dog really saved him.He was very fortunate."
Bob said he was "enormously" grateful to both Dr Colen and his Kelsey."They saved my life.They are truly heroes!"
