VIDEO: Man Risks His Life and Jumps into River to Save His Labrador

If you are a dog lover and have a dog yourself then you surely know just what wonderful pets and friends they are.

People say that they are a man’s best friend for a reason. No one could ask more from a friend than what a dog has to offer.

They would do anything for you, even give their life for you and your family.

They will protect you no matter what, they will understand you and love you no matter what you do to them and how you treat them.

In a perfect world for every single ounce of love that your dog gives you, you will give back the same amount.

Unfortunately, this doesn’t always happen. And this is why there are so many dogs left to die on the streets or sent to shelters.

Just because people realize they weren’t ready for the commitment or just don’t like them anymore.

But there are some that actually deserve a dog, like the man that you will see in the video below. He is a true friend to his Labrador dog.

According to heroviral.com, if you have a Labrador at home, you know that they will do anything and everything to retrieve and protect the love of their lives – the tennis ball.

This Labrador pup was also playing with the love of his life when suddenly the tennis ball went straight into the river.

The pup jumped right after it to retrieve it, but to his misfortune the river was just extremely tumultuous and the pup couldn’t make it back to safety.

Usually, when dogs dive in the river, they return without a problem, but when the water force is too much, it makes it difficult for them to swim back to safety and this is what happened with the poor Labrador.

But the pup’s owner wasn’t going to give up on his fur kid so without hesitating, he jumped into the river to rescue his beloved fur ball.

As soon as he jumped, the bystanders immediately called for help and had they not done that, the man and his pup would have literally died.

Many people tried to pull the man back to safety, but due to the strong water current and a large Labrador latched on, it was difficult for humans to pull them both.

The help soon arrived and both the man and his pup were saved from the river. While the man did an amazing job trying to rescue his pup, usually it’s not advised because it can result to death.

It’s better to say alert and call for help as soon as something happens.

If you have a pet, please be careful.  Sometimes they don’t realize and they end up in trouble.

While most times they can get out of it themselves, other times they might be in too deep.

This is why you have to take proper care of them and try to keep them out of it and be willing to save them if anything were to happen.
