Leawood Police Department officers in Kansas noticed a dog in the middle of the street with no owner in sight, and it started barking at them.
An officer approached the pup and said, "Hi, why don’t you go on back home?"
The officers followed the dog back to its home, where police say the owner had fallen and been on the ground for more than 3 hours.
"Thanks to the resident’s loyal companion, our officer was able to find them and get them the help they needed… The resident was treated by medical personnel and is now recovering safely at home."

Good dog!
Very.
There’s some good news for the day.
Dogs are incredible, aren’t they? But my cat sometimes shows me how he dug up my plant and/or knocked the planter over.
bttt
Extra honorary treats in celebration this week. (My dog’s idea)
Go ahead and sex the person on the ground.
“Them” is incorrect and plural.
“She” or “He” is correct and singular.
There was only one person on the ground.
They say nothing about the sex at all. The only “them” are the police. There easily could have been plural officers
The read with THEM and THEY are bad English.
Was it a him or her.
IDIOTS
I wish we knew this doggo’s name. What a great dog!
ALERT: Dog fetches the police and leads them back to his home, where cops find the dog's owner lying on the floor of the garage after he fell.
"Thanks to the resident’s loyal companion, our officer was able to find them and get them the help they needed…
Is this sentence grammtically correct if only one person is on the ground?

Yes, the sentence is grammatically correct even if only one person is on the ground.
Here’s the sentence again for reference:
Why it’s fine:
We don’t know half of what’s really going on with animals...
Was the dog’s name Lassie?
In my dating history I’ve learned that when one person in a comitted relationship refers to a specific someone outside the relationship as a vague “they”, or “them”, that person is avoiding the actual sex of the they/them to hide the sex and obfuscate some nefarious behavior; usually infidelity.
“I was talking to someone and they said...”
“I was out with a friend. I just had a drink with them”
This is more commonly known as lying.
Buh-bye!
But, that’s only a personal historical observation, which far predates the twisted and perverse homosexual application of they/them. Lying is also perverse.
YMMV
...not you EPU specifically
The ‘singular they’ was common in English long before the whole ‘trans’ issue arrived.
People love to complain about it as if it’s something new and due solely to the trans ‘fashion’.
Meanwhile the cat was going through the file cabinet to find the life insurance policies.
Speaking of “they” —
It’s always that nebulous, anonymous “they” who is responsible yet seemingly unaccountable for all of the trouble in this world.
Nameless perpetrators, even though “they” are named right in the Megillah, the scroll alternately known as the “revelation of the hidden”:
הם\ן
Everyone knows what really happens to Haman [& Sons] — *they* receive their just reward.
“IDIOTS”
Not idiots. It’s calculated. It’s part of an agenda.
“Was the dog’s name Lassie?”
.
Why does the dog’s sex matter?
