While carrying out a routine patrol in a residential neighbourhood, a Leawood police officer spotted what looked like a stray dog, as reported by local media.
An urgent cry for help
The dog was barking insistently, seemingly trying to catch the officer's attention, so he decided not to just drive by. Intrigued by the animal's behaviour and a lead trailing on the ground, the officer decided to follow the dog to see what was wrong.
Led straight to his owner
Guided by the clever dog trotting a few yards ahead, the officer followed him up the driveway of a nearby house. When he arrived, he found the garage door wide open, where a second dog was waiting, clearly hoping for help.
It was there that the officer discovered the homeowner lying on the garage floor, unable to get up after a nasty fall.
Thanks to the quick actions of the officer and the guidance of the loyal pet, emergency services were dispatched to the scene immediately. The resident received the medical care he needed and is now recovering safely at home.
