Dream Chaser ⚡️ on Nostr: George, the brave Jack Russell Terrier who saved five children from a vicious attack ...
George, the brave Jack Russell Terrier who saved five children from a vicious attack by two pit bulls in Manaia, New Zealand.
Despite being much smaller than the attacking dogs, George courageously defended the children, barking and rushing at the pit bulls to protect them. He was so severely mauled in the fight that a veterinarian had to put him down due to the extent of his injuries.
George's bravery didn't go unnoticed. The New Zealand Society for the Protection of Animals awarded him a bravery medal, and he was also awarded the PDSA Gold Medal by the People’s Dispensary for Sick Animals.
This medal is considered the animal equivalent of the George Cross, a testament to George's extraordinary act of bravery.
They also erected this monument.
