Remember that guy who was saved from a car crash by his faithful dog, who ran for help and barked until someone came to rescue her human companion? (Is that the right term we're using now instead of "owner"?) [Update: we've been informed that the term is "guardian," like Brugman. But doesn't "companion" sound so much cuddlier and less S&M-y?] Well, look at that picture! Man and dog are reunited -- and it feels so good!

So it turns out that human Michael Bosch slipped off his driveway down an 80-degree slope, and was pinned in his upside-down car. Cocker spaniel puppy Honey got out of the car and ran for help. Unfortunately, she didn't find help for another eight hours -- but hey, she's just a puppy! We're sure in a year or so, she'll be like, "hey, give me that cell phone, Bosch." Bosch is recovering nicely -- he'd suffered a heart attack just two months ago, so they're being careful with him. His coworkers brought Honey to the hospital, along with some chocolates, dog biscuits, and a stuffed "superdog" chewtoy.

Bosch had only adopted Honey two weeks earlier! They bond to us so fast! Next up for Bosch: housebreaking. (Let's hope she doesn't have to run for help again.)
