This happened in Georgia not too long ago, but finally the national media picked it up. Shannon Lorio crashed her car and she thought she was a goner. Then came along “Hero,” the German Shepherd stray.

From the Fox News story:

A bruised and battered south Georgia woman credits a wayward German Shepherd with rescuing her after her car careened down an embankment, tossing her through the rear window and leaving her sprawled, cut and bleeding, on the vehicle’s trunk.

Thirty-six-year-old Shannon Lorio said the dog, which has since been given the name “Hero,” pulled her by her collar off the trunk and dragged her about 50 yards through briars to the edge of a highway and let her lean against him so that she could stand up and flag a passing motorist.

And a huge thanks to Greta for recognizing the Shepherd’s true heroism, and you can watch the video here.
