The summer are upon us now and it means we have to take extra steps to ensure that our dogs are safe and protected when we take them outside on the “dog days” of summer. Lexie Daniel and a group of hikers encountered a man whose dog appeared to be severely overheated and dehydrated, the pup was in bad shape even after giving all of their water supplies, and they were afraid that it wouldn’t be enough to keep the pup gooing.

The owner could not carry the huge dog of the treacherous mountain trail by himself so he called the local park ranger, as soon as he was made aware of the emergency situation Salapek quickly jumped into action and soon found them on the trail.

“It was a LONG distance — a couple miles down an incredibly rocky path.”, Daniels told the Good News Network.


Salapek finally reached the foot of the mountain, Salepak’s hjeroic effort made thet pup survived the terrible ordeal. A pediatroc nurse named Daniel posted the good deed she witnessed on Facebook and it went viral very fast, it got over 50k like and more than 35k shares at the time of the writing.

Fortunately, Salapek arrived on time to help the owner and his dog get through it, the strength and determination that Salapek showed that day on the mountain, and he’s nothing short of a hero.
