Video: Heroic Dog Rescues Drowning Fawn as Owner Cheers on from Shore

A relaxing weekend walk on the beach turned into a rescue situation in a hurry when a man and his two dogs discovered something struggling in the water. Below is the original video taken by Mark Freely the moment his dog jumped into action:

Fox 13 News says Mark Freeley was walking along a Long Island beach when his dog, Storm, suddenly burst into action. Freeley couldn’t tell at first what it was his dog was rescuing, but as Storm swam in closer, Freeley saw it was a baby deer in his dog’s mouth.

You can watch the dog’s heroics in the video below, but apparently after officials arrived on scene, the fawn jumped back into the Harbor and had to be rescued again. This time, Storm stood by and watched.

Here is the video:
