Dolphins save Doberman Pinscher stranded on sandbar

When Audrey D'Alessandro and her husband, Sam, walked out of their home on Marco Island, near Naples, Fla., to go fishing, "we saw these two dolphins, and they were splashing and making this big commotion" in a canal behind their vacation home, she said.

Although it is not uncommon to see dolphins swimming through the canal on their way to the Gulf of Mexico, Audrey D'Alessandro said that this time, "they were just there, in one place, splashing water against the canal wall."

I doubt there is anyone here who forgets about Obama. But sometimes we try to escape to doggie threads, lolol.

What a great story! I’ve always loved Dolphins aka porpoise. They are so smart!

BTW, don’t worry about “dolphin” on a FL menu. It’s the east coast equivalent of mahi mahi. It’s not our mammal friends. ;o)
