Stranger Undresses And Jumps Into Cold River To Save Drowning 13-Year-Old Dog
Sara Melnicoff was going for a morning walk with her 13-year-old dog Carli when the pooch was suddenly swept away by the raging waters of Mill Creek, US.
“I was running along the creek, calling her name, when I got to the area that overlooks the Tea Cup,” Melnicoff wrote on Facebook. “I was going to take my shoes off and go in the water to try to get her, when this young man appeared out of nowhere and stripped down to his boxers. He plunged into the water, making his way along the slippery rocks, while the powerful currents of the water rushed all around him.”
To Melnicoff’s relief, the brave man, named Bobby L’Heureux, “managed to get a hold of Carli down stream some distance.” The dog “was shaking like a leaf and didn’t have much energy left.” Melnicoff donated to Bobby’s non profit charity for saving her girl.

What the title should be: 'Incredibly Handsome Hero saves elderly dog from drowning. *swoons* '
"Bobby L'Heureux"?? Nooooo, for real?? x'D In french, it means something like "Happy Bobby", so at first I thought It was some kind of joke ^^'
Sorry to disappoint ladies. I believe he's taken. Best of luck next time XD
He can be taken -- that's OK. I've been married to a great guy for nearly forty years; I'm an old lady who can't walk, either, but I can still SEE. And he's not just a hero, he's an absolute hunk, so I'm grateful for the opportunity to just look at him. And he saved a dog, which means that he's not just great LOOKING, he's a great guy! Thanks for brightening my day!

Wow! A real-life super hero! You are an amazing dude. Mr. L'Heureux!
This made me teary-eyed. Such a good story. So glad there are kind people like this in the world.
What a sweetheart! And very, very easy on the eyes! BP alluded to "his charity" to which Sara made a donation. It's to support MOUNTAIN RESCUE. Wow. It's called Big Hearts, Big Hands. How very fitting. If you would like to donate to it, too, here's the link: http://www.bigheartbighands.org/ And the story on The Dodo is a bit more detailed: https://www.thedodo.com/man-saves-drowning-dog-1820620332.html Hooray for Bobby L'Hereux!!
