A 10-year-old boy rescued the dog, thinking it was just another dog, but was shocked when he discovered its true identity.
What actually happened
Once the police had been notified, the vet asked James where he had met the dog, and James began to describe what had happened on his way home from school.
James heard a sound on his way home. The sound came from the river, so he headed toward it. He didn’t know what it was, but he thought it was someone calling for help. He decided to see what it was.
