Here’s the most heartwarming story you’ll hear today, courtesy of Ellen DeGeneres hosting four heroes on Tuesday’s show. Four Wellesley, Mass. firefighters saved 5-year-old golden retriever Crosby from an icy river right before Christmas. Two of the firefighters, Paul and Dave, braved frigid water while the others, Joan and Jim, hauled them and the dog back safely to shore. A dog, an icy river, four firefighters, a rescue, and Ellen. This story has all the elements essential to modern lit.
Ellen, being the animal lover that she is, could not let the heroic deed go unrewarded. Watch the tale of the rescue below, and see how Ellen thanked them!
