WATCH: Dogs fetch help for owner suffering stroke, saves her life
February 11, 2019
A Florida woman is alive today after suffering a stroke at her home and she has two Labrador retrievers to thank for saving her life
Maureen Hatcher lives alone with her two dogs, Bella and Sadie. Last month, she suffered a stroke and collapsed.
As she lay on the floor, unable to move and barely able to speak, the dogs ran over to help. Hatcher recalls, “I remember Sadie coming in and I said … ‘Mommy needs help’ And then, they were gone.”
Surveillance video captured the moment two dogs ran out of their home to find help. The dogs ran to a neighbor’s home and that neighbor called paramedics to the scene after checking on the owner.
