CALVERT, Md. - Toby, a 2-year-old golden retriever, saw his owner choking on a piece of fruit and began jumping up and down on the woman's chest. The dog's owner believes the dog was trying to perform the Heimlich maneuver and saved her life.

Debbie Parkhurst, 45, of Calvert told the Cecil Whig newspaper she was eating an apple at her home Friday when a piece lodged in her throat. She attempted to perform the Heimlich maneuver on herself but it didn't work. After she began beating on her chest, she said Toby noticed and got involved.

1. Awww.... That's great.

Who ever heard of a cat dialing 911 or doing the heimlich?

2. Well, that's all very nice, but

my cat performs open-heart surgery and is working on perfecting cold fusion and perpetual motion. :)
