Former Stray Pit Bull Mix Receives Medal for Helping Save His Owner’s Life
A former straypit bull mix is living proof that some heroes wear collars, not capes. The heroic dog who saved his owner after he went into medical distress was recognized for his bravery with a medal.
Astro the American pit bull terrier alerted someone in El Paso, Texas, on April 15 when one of his owners, who remains anonymous, needed help. Astro’s barking ultimately led the good Samaritan to locate the 36-year-old man in distress and make a life-saving call for emergency medical assistance.
The dog was the center of attention at a ceremony that was held two days later, with the El Paso Fire Department (EPFD) and El Paso Animal Services in attendance at EPFD’s Safety & Health Outreach Center. Astro received a medal, a certificate, and a special dog-friendly cake, according to KTSM.
