A toy crocodile helped rescue a dog that fell into a lake in Australia.
One sunny day in Australia’s Northern Territory, a group of good Samaritans spotted a dog falling into a lake, overgrown with aquatic plants. The dog struggled to get out of the water because there were so many plants in the lake.
The good Samaritans immediately jumped into the lake and grabbed the dog, but the lake’s plants were too thick to penetrate. That’s when they came up with using an inflatable crocodile toy to rescue the dog. The two men carefully picked up the dog and put him on the toy.
After a few minutes, they managed to drag the dog back onto dry land. As a responsible dog owner, you should always keep your pet on a leash when walking in public places. It will prevent them from running off, getting lost, or getting injured by other animals or humans.
Putting your dog on a leash can also prevent it from damaging anything or hurting itself or others. The leash will keep your loyal companion safe and prevent him from wandering into dangerous areas. You will never really have to worry about your dog suddenly running off somewhere.
By always keeping the dog on a leash, you will avoid her running into traffic and possibly being struck by a bike. Also, she won’t be able to run into the arms of a stranger. You can find a variety of leashes these days that can help you walk your dog without worrying too much about its safety.
There are leashes made of leather, nylon, and even metal chains. The best leash is the kind that’s both long enough to allow you to have control over your pet when he pulls against you and short enough to prevent you from tripping. It should also be sturdy enough and comfortable in your hands as well.
