Dogs don’t think twice when it comes to saving their humans from danger. They don’t think about themselves as long as they are able to ensure the safety of their beloved owners. There are some occasions, however, where the roles are reversed; the owner is the one who will save their pup without any hesitation. In this story, a kid saves his dog from drowning in a pool by acting quickly.
A brave kid from Brazil named Matheus Felipe moved quickly and courageously after he saw that his beloved pup was drowning. He did the unthinkable just to save his dear friend.
