"I couldn't talk or yell. I had no phone to text a message. I thought I would be stranded until someone found us," said Brozman, who lives on her own in Santa Rosa, California, with a wheelchair and Caspin, who understands English and sign language.
Caspin put his neck under her hand until she got a finger looped on his collar.
"Then, very slowly, he started to pull me forward. He pushed the door open. Then he stayed by me until I could function enough to get into bed," she said.

My genius dog decided there was an axe murderer in the yard at 4 AM this morning.
He was wrong.

Mine keeps furnishing me with proof that she’s a whole lot smarter than anyone thinks.
Like when I tell her to “get out of the kitchen”. She hightails it out of there and plunks herself down in the dining room, 2 inches over the threshold.
Except that I’ve never taught her where the kitchen ends.

"He was wrong."
Or he scared the ax murderer off. ;-)

Speaking of that... the tragedy that unfolded in my life last year... my dogs were the only ones left there... and their eyes staring at me was the only thing that kept me from putting a 40cal in my brain.

One of my dogs would fall asleep beside the two paper cups. The other would snatch the treat before it was under the cup. The cats would be demanding each got a treat and have all the paper cups in the pantry shredded in 3 minutes flat.

” You gotta love him though,he thought he was right.”
Until he started barking like the Hound of the Baskervilles, he might have been 100% right.

He doesn’t bark at night.
He gets on the bed, puts a paw on me and stares at me till I wake up.

Don’t feel bad, my genius dog believes axe murders are not nearly so dangerous as squirrels.

I’d just like to know how mine knows it’s me coming down the road. He’ll be out of his house running back and forth when I am way down the road. Thought maybe it was tire noise so I checked that after getting new tires. I think it’s ESP.

How do you know for sure?
He might have run off when faced with the defensive heroism of your brave genius dog!

That's why they were staring they were telling you we are here for you.
Gentlemen of the Jury: The best friend a man has in the world may turn against him and become his enemy. His son or daughter that he has reared with loving care may prove ungrateful. Those who are nearest and dearest to us, those whom we trust with our happiness and our good name may become traitors to their faith. The money that a man has, he may lose. It flies away from him, perhaps when he needs it most. A man's reputation may be sacrificed in a moment of ill-considered action. The people who are prone to fall on their knees to do us honor when success is with us, may be the first to throw the stone of malice when failure settles its cloud upon our heads.
The one absolutely unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous is his dog. A man's dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness. He will sleep on the cold ground, where the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he may be near his master's side. He will kiss the hand that has no food to offer. He will lick the wounds and sores that come in encounters with the roughness of the world. He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were a prince. When all other friends desert, he remains. When riches take wings, and reputation falls to pieces, he is as constant in his love as the sun in its journey through the heavens.
If fortune drives the master forth, an outcast in the world, friendless and homeless, the faithful dog asks no higher privilege than that of accompanying him, to guard him against danger, to fight against his enemies. And when the last scene of all comes, and death takes his master in its embrace and his body is laid away in the cold ground, no matter if all other friends pursue their way, there by the graveside will the noble dog be found, his head between his paws, his eyes sad, but open in alert watchfulness, faithful and true even in death.
George Graham Vest - c. 1855
