Pokey a True Hero!

Pokey and Laeci
Pokey's foster mom has a incredible story to tell about how the dog she rescued in turn rescued her two year old daughter!
"I woke up to Pokey barking around 5a.m. one morning. I immediately jumped up
and signaled for her to be quiet, then I realized she wasn't sleeping
anywhere near her normal sleeping place. Instead she was standing next to
my two year old daughter's crib. I again signaled for her to be quiet and then
looked into Laeci's crib and noticed she was lying on her stomach and she
was breathing funny. I picked her up and could smell vomit. She had thrown
up in her sleep and was lying face down in it and was breathing it in
everytime she took a breath. Pokey is my hero, I am not sure that my
husband or I would have realized the situation if it had not been for Pokey
alerting us. I still am not sure how Pokey knew something was wrong with
Laeci. Since Pokey is deaf I knew she couldn't here her breathing
abnormally but for whatever reason that sweet, beautiful, deaf foster dog of
mine possibly saved my baby's life and for that I will forever be thankful
to her and she will always hold a special place in my heart."
Pokey is one incredible dog... we don't know who she could have known something was wrong with the baby but she did and it is truly amazing.
Pookey was adopted in January 2006
