[Asia Economy Reporter Nana] A story about a dog named Sadie who helped save her owner who collapsed from a stroke in the United States is touching many hearts.

According to major foreign media on the 12th (local time), Brian Myers (59), who lives in New Jersey, collapsed to the floor late at night on the 16th of last month while trying to get out of bed to go to the bathroom.

Myers wanted to call for help but could not move his body freely due to the stroke and was unable to get up. At that moment, his German Shepherd dog Sadie (6) approached him.

When Myers grabbed Sadie by the scruff of her neck, Sadie pulled back and dragged him. Thanks to Sadie's help, he was able to crawl on the floor to reach his phone and call 911.

Myers said, "Sadie instinctively pulled back to help me move," adding, "If it weren't for Sadie, I would still be lying there."

Myers had adopted Sadie last October after she was abandoned by her previous owner and was in a shelter. He expressed his gratitude, saying Sadie repaid him by saving his life.

Myers said, "Who saved whom is hard to say," and added, "Sadie is so lovable that words cannot express it."

Meanwhile, on the 9th, when Myers was discharged from the rehabilitation facility, Sadie greeted him by jumping onto his wheelchair, licking his face, and wagging her tail, bringing smiles to those around them.
