Axel the rescue dog saved his elderly owner from a robber’s attack. In England, an 86-year-old woman was being attacked during an attempted robbery.
The man hit her over the head with something and demanded she hand over her jewelry. She says she was seeing stars.
“I’ve never seen him move so fast and jumps at this bloke and knocks him flat on to the floor,” the woman said.
“He [the robber] gets up but he still has my dog attached to his arm. He shook the dog off and I thought I had lost him. The dog came back with his nose covered in blood.”
She says prior to this incident everyone called Axel a gentle giant. Now, she says, they call him a hero.
