Lost Boy Found Safe Thanks to Heroic Rancher's Dog

A two-year-old boy named Sam went missing in the Arizona desert. After an extensive search, involving over 40 rescuers and complicated by the presence of mountain lions, Sam was found safe and sound. The unexpected hero? Buford, a rancher's dog, who stayed by Sam's side all night and led him back to his family's driveway. "I was getting ready to leave," said rancher Scotty Dunton, "I'd heard about the missing child... and when I saw Buford lying down next to a kid, I was skeptical, but it was Sam." This heartwarming story highlights the incredible bond between humans and animals and the power of community in times of crisis.
