Dogs are Man’s Best Friend and guardians and protectors of their family. They are very loyal, and if they sense something is wrong with a loved one, they will act on it. They especially take on this role of big brother or big sister to little kids.

In the video below, the dog’s ball got away and went out into the water. When his little human thinks about going and getting it, the dog immediately senses the danger of her falling into the deep water and pulls her back to safety.

Proving that the dog knew exactly what was going on, he proceeds to go out into the water on his own to retrieve the ball! There’s no way he’s letting his little human go out there. What a hero!
