So I originally found this story on "People" magazine's website -

"An elderly man in Limington, Maine, has his trusty dog to thank for saving his life after he fell into a frigid brook.

According to local TV station WCSH, an 84-year-old legally blind man slipped and fell into a brook while trying to put his yellow Labrador, Samantha, in a dog run.

Shortly thereafter, a woman heard the man yelling in the woods behind her house and alerted the York County Sheriff's Office.

Upon arrival at the scene, the officers found Samantha, who would not stop barking until one of the officers followed her to the brook.

Officers told the station that Samantha led them to the brook where her owner had been yelling for help to get out.

The blind man was unable to make his way out of the brook and was getting hypothermia. According to officials, the man's body temperature had dropped to about 84 degrees.

Once the officers found the man, they were able to successfully rescue him from the brook"
