Another Point for Team Dog




Yahoo - We sometimes take for granted just how intuitive and helpful dogs can be. They serve as guides for the blind, search-and-rescue officers, and bomb detectors, but they are also fiercely loyal to their owners — no matter how young or old. That is evidenced in a recent YouTube video from Turkey, in which a cocker spaniel shows that it is more than just a playful pup.
On the Kabak Koyu beach in southwestern Turkey, a woman is throwing a ball for the dog while her child crawls around in the sand. Small children are, of course, artful escapees, and suddenly the child is going full-bore straight at the ocean. The spaniel, dropping playtime immediately, races down to the surf and plops down in the sand between the child and the waves, drawing the family's attention just as the adventurous youngster is about to hit the water. One commenter wrote, "Face it. Dogs are better than humans." After seeing this video, it's hard to disagree.
Here we go. Mans best friend at it again and another point for dogs. Baby is about to get caught in the water and drown so the dog reacts against his instincts and instead of going for a ball, goes to save the baby. What would a cat do in this situation? Probably says fuck it and keeps licking itself. Wouldn't even think about going near that water. Doesn't give a shit about anyone except itself. Team dog.
