An Ontario dog stops traffic to rescue owner having a seizure

An Ontario dog is being hailed as a hero after she stopped traffic to get help for her owner, who was suffering from a seizure. Haley Moore says she was walking her dog, Clover, through her neighborhood last week when she had a seizure. Although Moore has no memory of the incident, a neighbor’s security camera told the story, showing Clover checking on Moore before running into the street to stop a passing truck.

The driver of the truck, Dryden Oatwa says the dog actually blocked his way by backing into the road to make him stop.  Another passing driver, Danielle Pilon, stopped to help, and Clover then ran off back home where she barked until Haley’s parents and neighbors came, then led them to where Haley was waiting for the ambulance. Doctors still haven’t determined what caused her seizure. Moore’s parents said they rewarded Clover for her heroism with a big juicy steak.
