Samantha/George; Mathew/Corey

As is my usual modus operandi on Sundays this true story is about individuals who are to be admired for what they did. However, today is unique in that it involves two different pairs.

There is a video on Epoch Bright, and I will attempt to summarize the story as best I can:

Samantha and her fiancé, George, are the true heroes of this story, although without the loyalty and/or friendship of Corey the following would have never happened.

First off, Samantha and George traveled fifty miles to help. They had seen a Facebook post from a postman who described what he saw, but because of his job commitment could not give aid.

When Samantha and George arrived at the scene, a bedraggled and dirty Corey was sitting on the side of the road. He was obviously waiting and hoping for help, because his friend lay in a ditch on the side of the road. What makes this story unusual is that both Corey and his friend, Mathew, are dogs. Mathew was lying in a ditch about twenty feet off the side of the road … too far off the road to have been spotted by a passing car. Mathew would have never been spotted if it wasn’t for the vigilance of Corey marking the spot.

Mathew had and obviously had been hit by a car and had sustained multiple injuries. His rapid breathing indicated that his condition was critical. With some difficulty Samantha and George were able to get both Mathew and Corey into their car and to a vet, who saved Mathew and was able to patch up Corey. At the end of the video the two dogs are reunited with both tails wagging.

It was only at the end that I realized how much Mathew and Corey looked alike, with Corey being smaller and Mathew bigger. My guess is father and son. 

So who are the ones that we should all look up to and admire here? 

Obviously, Samantha and George who went way out of their way to help.

However, let’s not forget Corey who would not leave the scene until his friend, possibly his father, was helped. 

Would that we would all act like these heroes in similar circumstances.

BTW, the video is well worth it.
