So it wasn't a police cat? Hmm, interesting.

Apparently dogs are the best.

It should be mandatory when AP reports news like this that they also include a picture of the dog

Maybe not all cops are bastards. At least some are sons of bitches

Who’s a good boy?

I mean, hopefully he stops murdering animals minding their own business. One just saved his life.

We should replace cops with dogs. I'm not saying it would fix anything, Imagine being arrested by a pug!

Surely they mean reportedly.

Oh God, that poor man.

I live near the AuSable. It has been in the 20s at night and that river is icy cold in the middle of summer. Surprised he survived, and what a misery that night must have been.

Really smart of him to know how to signal for help and that he was lost, and great that his wife knew the signal. Ends very differently otherwise.

After the third time, he decided not to walk so close to the river.

He was found because he had a system in place with his wife and she knew when to expect him and when it was time to call for help. Don’t ever go off in the woods without telling someone where you will be and creating a plan if you don’t return. Well done to everyone, especially the very good boy who found him!

My hunting partner of 25 years is now in his eighties. He refuses to quit and I refuse to leave him behind. But I worry constantly that something is going to happen to him while we are out there trying to get ducks.

Replying to Neryll (#565,007)

It was pretty damn cold this weekend too. I was hunting an area less than twenty miles from where this happened, although I didn’t hear about it at the time. It was mid twenties overnight with heavy snow at times and mild wind. Definitely bad conditions for being soaking wet and a mile from shelter.

Wow a cop that’s actually doing their job. Bravo.

It’s dangerous to go alone.

When you’re 80.

So go with someone who can have your back.

Was the river attacking him? How do you fall in a river repeatedly?
