Reading

Storm, a golden retriever, spotted a drowning fawn and ran to its rescue during one morning walk in Long Island, New York. The dog jumped into the sea, dragged the fawn to safety and then nuzzled and pawed at the fawn to try and bring it back to life.

The dog’s owner, who is a lawyer, filmed the whole incident on his phone. The fawn went to an animal rescue centre and is making a recovery.
