American Saves Bulldog with Mouth-to-Mouth

US citizen Randy Gurchin saved his drowning bulldog Lucy by giving her mouth-to-mouth.

The 10-month-old English bulldog jumped into a partly frozen lake but found out that the water was too cold to be chasing geese.

Gurchin managed to pull his "best buddy" out of the water, but the dog was already unresponsive and her muzzle and paws had turned blue. He didn't think twice before administering mouth to mouth. After the dog started gasping again, he took it to the vet for treatment.

"Once you get a pet, it's truly part of your family," the man told the media. "You just tend to do whatever it takes to save their life."
