An 81-year-old guy in Florida lost control of his electric wheelchair last month. His wheelchair lost traction in some mulch causing him to slide down the bank and flip off his wheelchair into and fall into a lake.
He was close to drowning but his dog wouldn't stop barking until it got someone's attention, and saved his life.
The mans electric wheelchair was damaged from falling into the water, so the first responders pushed him home. The man says he made sure to give his dog an extra treat when they got home.
