It was the case of a dog being a dog and trying to chase geese. The result was an animal in distress in an ice-covered pond who fortunately was within reach for a hero Colorado firefighter.
This was one Colorado celebration for the dogs - literally. There was a golden reason why the streets of Golden, Colorado were filled with Golden Retrievers. It was their annual celebration of one of America's favorite dog breeds.
It's been said that not all heroes wear capes. I believe that is true especially for a Colorado deputy who's quick thinking and brave actions saved a dog from a burning car.
