Unreal waiting 10 hours to call for help? I would love to hear that persons excuse of why it took so long to call for help. Maybe he is the owner and just hoped that the dog would die out there.

I wish I were in a position to take this dog-but i imagine he has a good warm home already! That is the great thing about animal rescues in the news-such a pet will find a home right away!

First, thanks to everyone's effort to save this dog. The fact they can't find the owner is a good argument for requiring all pets be microchipped. Hopefully he will find a good home.

I think that, perhaps, this dog could do with a little better care than he received from his past owner. No ID tags, no missing report, no one even looking for him. Perhaps he will be given a new shot at human companionship with someone who cares.

Poor dog -- that is horrible. I do wonder where the owner is - did they abandon him or are looking for him and don't know where he is. Wonderful people who went to such trouble to save him!

very stong dog to be in those conditions. Hope his owners turn up if they have any love for him at all if not the dog would be better off finding someone that would love him

I agree. The dog would probably be better off with an owner who really cares.

How do you hear a dog yelping and crying and not call the police until 8 hours later?

I wonder why more than one dog fell into the icy lake? Bad luck for them. But thankfully, there were alert humans on the scene who saved them.

What's the point of a collar with no identification tag? It's truly a miracle the dog survived. He had a will to live and did not give up! He deserves a warm home and a loving family who will be responsible enough to notice when he's gone.

I am so glad to hear that the dog was rescued & is being treated. Some vets will not treat an animal that is considered a stray. So, I am glad to hear in this case the dog is receiving the needed care. I'll pray that the owners are found & reunited with their pet after a full recovery! It would be great for an update on this story Z2 in the future. Thanks.
