Hero Dog Honored

In Burnley, UK, Ruswarp the Border collie dog who stayed by his dead owners side for 11 weeks back in 1990 is being honored with a statue. Ruswarp stayed by his owner Graham Nuttall through snow and rain when he had trouble walking. Neighbors searched for Nuttall for weeks and couldn’t find him. When they finally found him by a mountain stream, Ruswarp was there standing guard over him. Ruswarp was so weak that he had to be carried.

Ruswarp is reminiscent of anotherĀ  heroic dog, Greysfriars Bobby.
