Kelsey the Golden Retriever is being hailed a hero for saving her owner’s life. Bob ventured into the woods to get firewood and slipped and fell breaking his neck. He lay there paralyzed screaming for help in the cold snow and dark night.

With his nearest neighbor located a quarter-mile away, his yelling went unheard by all except for Kelsey. The brave dog used her keen sense of smell to track down her owner, and she snuggled his hands and feet to try and keep him warm. She barked and barked until the neighbor was finally alerted over 20 hours later. At this point, Bob was unconscious and critical.
