Very cool story-- Dog saves man stuck in bath (BBC News)
Dog saves man stuck in bath

A man suffering from multiple sclerosis who lay trapped in his bathtub for six days says he owes his life to his loyal dog.

Bruce Ashworth, 55, slipped while taking a bath in his home in the US state of Colorado on 29 August.

Mr Ashworth, a retired engineer who now uses a wheelchair, could not reach the safety handles in the bath to rescue himself.
