Remus To The Rescue

From MSN:
"Hero dog honored by Mesa FD after viral video shows him rescuing buddy from pool"


It was all over the internet back in May: A video showing a dog rescuing his furry friend from drowning in a backyard pool. The incredible rescue happened right here in the Valley. Smokey was struggling to swim in the pool after falling in, but luckily Remus was there to jump in and lend a helping paw.  On Wednesday, Remus the dog-turned-lifeguard was recognized by the Mesa Fire and Medical Department for saving Smokey. "That video is so impressive to see how a dog can even go and save his friend's life," Mesa FD's Meghan Chute said. "Remus is awesome and we are so happy that he was able to save his friend."  "It's so important to teach your kids water safety but also it shows that Kayla [Remus' owner] did the right thing in teacher her dog water safety as well," Chief Cameli said. "What a great day and what a happy thing for us to celebrate with Remus." Kayla Becerra, Remus' owner, said it was "awesome" to see Remus be honored for his good deed. "Nobody was around to make sure he was doing the right thing and he still did the right thing," she said. Becerra said her family was "very fortunate" that Remus was there to save the day.
