Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!

About Me
- Cro Magnon
- I was born just south of London, but for the past 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. We also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching). Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!
Well done to the rescuers. I hope the dog didn't decide to go back into the water.
ReplyDeleteYou never know with dogs!!!
DeleteOh the poor dog. Thank goodness that girl was there and was able to bring him back to land.
ReplyDeleteActually a team effort. Heroes all
DeleteIt's not everyone who would jump in to save a dog. She did a great job.
DeleteThe rope against the stones was very helpful.
ReplyDeleteShe seemed to be losing strength before the man went in; even with the rope.
DeletePoor dog must have been frightened.
ReplyDeleteThe poor thing must have been petrified.
DeleteMy heart was in my mouth watching this. Well done, the rescuers.
ReplyDeleteA good news video for a Friday morning.
DeleteOkay. They rescued the dog but what about the swans?
ReplyDeleteThey belong to The King; he can go and rescue them!
DeleteBrought tears to my eyes Cro - wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI'm a great animal lover, so me too!
DeleteWhat an enjoyable animal rescue video to start my day.
ReplyDeleteHeart warming!
DeleteTouching. I wondered why no man jumps into the water and leaves the girl alone there, but in the end the wonderful man came.
ReplyDeleteBoth wonderful people. I hope I would do the same, but these days I would struggle.
DeleteShe is a very brave woman and with help from a man made the rescue possible. The dog must have felt panic and desperate until help arrived.
ReplyDeleteI hope the dog thanked them both; I'm sure it did.
