In an extraordinary act of loyalty and bravery, a pet dog saved the life of its owner, a 36-year-old woman from Piligoodu, Karnataka, who attempted to end her life by jumping into the Netravati River. The woman, distraught after a recent argument with her husband, had walked four kilometers to the river with the intention of committing suicide.


On Thursday night, following a heated quarrel, the woman left her home and headed towards the Netravati River. Unbeknownst to her, the family dog followed closely behind. As she climbed the retainer wall and prepared to jump, the dog clamped onto her chudidhar and began barking loudly, attracting the attention of nearby passers-by. Two individuals on a bike, alerted by the persistent barking, rushed to the scene and managed to pull the woman back from the edge, preventing a tragic outcome.


The pet dog's quick thinking and loyalty have been widely praised by the public. This courageous act not only averted a tragedy but also highlighted the profound bond between humans and their pets. The dog's heroism serves as a poignant reminder of the unwavering loyalty and love that pets offer to their owners.
