One heroic dog is capturing the hearts of many after a video has gone viral of him leading a sanitation worker to his elderly owner, who had fallen. The situation was captured on security camera footage. Gwendola Johnson is 88 years old and her dog, Sandy, is 11. They're the best of friends. It was July 10th when Johnson was walking out her front door and fell. This left her unable to move or get up to call someone for help. Sandy was right by her side and took off to get help. She noticed a man in a neon green shirt walking up her driveway, a man named Kirk White. He's a sanitation worker at Glendale Integrated Waste Management. He came to pull out her trash cans in the knick of time as Sandy went to go fetch the worker. “When I saw him, I said to Sandy, ‘You go get him,’ so he did,” Johnson says.

The heroic Sandy led Kirk right to his owner and Kirk helped her up right away. When Johnson's family saw the security footage, they say they were brought to tears.
