A few teenage boys were out enjoying a bike ride when they saw a dog laying on the side of the road, clearly injured. They approached the dog and could tell that it needed serious medical attention if it was going to survive. They called the local animal rescue team for help.

While the boys waited for the rescue team to arrive, they built a bike barricade around the dog to prevent any cars from getting to close and further harming the animal. The rescue team gave the dog pain medication and assessed it on the roadside. They informed the boys that without their help, the dog would have died.

Watch the video to learn more about the heroic actions these boys took.

It’s always great to see stories of people looking out for another being.
