A Minnesota family’s life took a dramatic turn when their adopted pit bull mix, Joy, rescued their son, Jonas, from a near-fatal incident. Two years ago, they welcomed Joy into their family, and he quickly became a beloved member, particularly bonding with their children, Emilly and Jonas.
One day, while the family was in the backyard, Jonas decided to take a bath. His mother heard strange noises coming from inside the house and rushed in. She found Joy barking at the stairs. In the bathroom, she discovered Jonas dozing off in the bathtub, with Joy desperately pulling at him.
Jonas had suffered a heart attack and was on the brink of drowning. Joy instinctively opened the bathroom door and assisted Jonas out of the tub. The mother called 911, and paramedics saved Jonas’s life. Joy’s quick actions ensured Jonas’s survival, highlighting the incredible bond between dogs and their owners.
