In 2017, an eight-year-old Italian girl, Caterina, and her sister were playing a few meters away from the ocean. Her father was watching them. Everything seemed calm and quiet when in an instant, the little girls were abruptly overpowered by one of the waves and dragged out to the sea.
Attempting to save the innocent child, her father acted quickly and was able to pull Caterina’s sister from the water. But Caterina was trapped and in danger of drowning.
Fortunately, Lux and his caregiver were patrolling the beach at the time. The certified lifeguard dog immediately recognized the life-threatening scenario. He sprang into the water to save the young child.
The brave dog Lux took the girl safely back to shore, saving her life.
It was an amazing act of bravery that could only be appreciated and praised.
Moreover, Lux had already saved numerous lives.
He saved a couple on the same beach only a few years ago.
We are so grateful to Lux for saving this young girl. She got back with her family without serious injuries. This faithful act of the dog amazed the girl. She spent the remainder of her vacation with her family with an overwhelming sense of gratitude towards this brilliant dog.
Later, she recalled that the incident left a lasting impact on her life. There was so much to learn from an animal that’s missing in our everyday lives.
Her parents thanked the organization (Scuola Italiana Cani Salvataggio) that trained the brave dog, Lux.
Also, it operates on the beaches of Tirreno, Livorno, beginning with the commencement of the summer season.
Moreover, they seek to educate to avoid dangerous circumstances, primarily for families and tourists. So that they may enjoy their vacations in safety.
