Besides bawling my eyes out after watching this, I was reminded of a valuable lesson in life. What was your reaction?

Very, very moving. Such qualities of unselfish compassion and courage! (and love!)

It brought tears to my eyes because 40 years ago our dogs got loose when the trash man left the gate open. One of the dogs got hit by a car and the other dog dragged her to the sidewalk. Unfortunately, she did not survive but he remained by her side and would not let anyone near her.

What unconditional loyalty! I was sad to see the first dog hit by a vehicle who just went on their merry way. And then to see the second dog drag the injured dog off the highway was just so amazing! The construction workers were hero's too for helping the two dogs get off the road. I have a new respect for these workers who not only helped these dogs, but also helped pull the motorcycle driver out from under a burning car no so long ago. They really are the GOOD guys! I was glad to hear that the injured dog survived. Thanks for posting! :-)

Hard for me to watch...but amazing what the "rescuer" dog did for the injured dog. Thank you for posting this.
