The 11-year-old dog refused to leave the neighbour until he followed her to rescue her owner who had collapsed back homePublished Tuesday, August 10, 2010
A small dog who refused to return home until a neighbour followed her helped rescue her owner after he collapsed at home following heart surgery.
Charles Mitchell said he was working in his yard last week in the Oregon wine country town of Yamhill when an 11-year-old dachshund named Missy scampered up and refused to leave.
Mitchell told the dog to go home, but she refused, and when he decided to follow her across the street to investigate, he found his neighbour, Charlie Burdon, had collapsed inside his home.
The police chief arrived with paramedics, Burdon was taken to the hospital.
Burdon suffered an attack of vertigo and is recovering.
But Burdon and Mitchell, who have known each other for years, both said Missy is their hero.
