My boston jumped in a pool to save my mom who he thought was drowning (that was his first time swimming ever!) he swam straight to her and nudged her to the side of the pool. My mom is 4”11 and was in 4ft of water but man that was special.

With compassion and respect, I would like to offer that little ones as sick as this child need to be sleeping in the same room as a parent. So grateful all turned out well.

My Boston saved my life when I had a severe seizure, he barked like crazy and went and got my wife to follow her downstairs from what she told me.

Put my dog down on the 12th, he was only 5 but had cancer. He was a good boy, just like this dog!🥺❤️

[msgtrght]

We really don’t deserve dogs! Way to go Henry 🥺💜👏🏽

God Bless this Precious Baby that she is well and God Bless the Family and good job to the cute dog...

So glad your dog was alert and your baby is safe.

A dog is man’s best friend! This is one of the many reasons! I’m glad she doing ok. Be blessed! 💕

I have heard similar stories. Dogs have really good instincts and many are extremely protective of children. Pay attention to your pets especially when their behavior is unusual. I've seen training videos where dogs learned to get under their owner's neck/head if they are having a seizure. It's an effort to prevent the owner from hurting themselves. It's really kind of amazing.

I truly believe that dogs can sense more that we know. Dogs are loyal to their pack. They will give their lives for the pack.

Dogs are awesome. Dogs are so very special I love all of them. God bless and save all dogs please and thank you.

Omg, that's amazing. How did he know she was in

[kandd]

When I was a baby my dog would guard my crib and not let anyone he didn’t trust near me and when not in the room he would bark at anyone coming even close to the door my crib was in. He would later help me learn to walk by letting me grab onto him and take steps.
RIP Kenya (my dogs name) I miss you buddy you best fried our cat rainy also did I hope your in a good place now

[CIapzyy]

I’m telling ya! Idk what I would do without my dog pit/rot I was sick recently harsher than others. And I was uncontrollably shaking and shivering teeth clacking type sickness along with the typical nausea. My dog wouldn’t leave my side rapped in between my legs, couldn’t get her away. Neither did I want to she was keeping me so warm. Knowing I was cold and sick she went out of her way to keep me warm. Dogs are truly special and humans don’t deserve their love and compassion.

Good Boy Henry, plenty of belly rubs and treats

[pamelamays]

I had a Boston Terrier many years ago. He was very protective of my then infant son, not letting the other family dog in the baby's room.

[fernym]

this is so cute, these are the stories we want to hear, not killings and terror

[nikkinic]

Humans, unfortunately, think in the most SIMPLISTIC manner.

Clearly the dog and the baby are spiritually connected.

He knew something was wrong with the child, even when the parents didn't.

Divine Order has a place in everything and God was working through Henry.

[DjMellowMoods]

Dogs are amazing. It's about time they put a better law together owning a dog making it harder to own one not being nasty because this won't effect you if your a good person but it will stop toxic dog breeders dog fighting.

When Dogs 🐕 act up. It's for a Reason.
I used to live in a Rough Neighborhood. My do would bark in the middle of the night. We finally hooked up a 📷 and saw soooo many CRACKHEADS coming on to our porch and running off because our dog barking.
