HALIFAX -- Two Nova Scotia men are credited with saving a stray dog stranded on a partially frozen lake in Digby County Sunday and now the dog is looking for its home. The dog had been spotted wandering around North Range, N.S. for a week and seemed to have no owner. Then on Sunday afternoon, residents living on the shores of Haines Lake noticed the dog standing on a patch of ice about 600 metres from shore – too frightened to move. It had been there for several hours when locals banded together to rescue it. The dog had been standing on a patch of ice about 600 metres from shore – too frightened to move.
