In Portland, Connecticut a dog rescued from the shelter repaid his owners by saving  the life of their 9 week old infant. The Brousseau couple had been fast asleep when their dog, Duke, jumped into bed and began shaking uncontrollably, “He is insanely obedient, so this was extremely bizarre,” Jenna Brousseau said. Immediately they knew something was wrong, so they followed Duke into their daughter’s room. Harper, their 9 week old baby, had stopped breathing. Jenna’s husband called the paramedics and Harper was revived and taken to the hospital; the doctors were unsure of what caused Harper to stop breathing, but said it may have been due to acid reflux. Jenna said if it hadn’t been for their heroic dog, Harper wouldn’t be with them today. For more animal rescue stories check The Talon each week.
