A German Shepherd from Shakopee, Minnesota is being hailed as a ‘hero’ for saving the life of her owner.
Lucy woke up her owner Mary Lynn frantically at midnight and was acting very strange because that’s when Mary Lynn’s husband was having a heart attack.
Mary Lynn quickly called 911, and performed CPR till the ambulance arrived.
Lucy’s wake up call to Mary Lynn and her quick thinking along with the treatment by the medical professionals saved her husband’s life and since then he has made a full recovery.
