Title: Poppy is a Hero :-) + RSPCA and a sheep
Post by: CLKD on February 07, 2022, 02:09:04 PM

A man has been rescued from the sea after a dog spotted him struggling and barked non-stop to alert its owner.

The man, in his mid-50s, fell from a tender, a small transport boat, near Royal Clarence Marina in Gosport on Saturday evening.

Due to stormy conditions and a strong tide, he was swept away 300m (985ft) towards Millennium Bridge.

The dog walker rang 999 after her pet would not stop barking near the bridge, alerting her to his calls for help.

Oh my gosh! I wonder why the poor sheep was going to do that. Thank goodness for the rescuer.
