Dog, owner save old woman in Japan's Akita

Megumi Takeuchi and her Akita dog receive a letter of gratitude from Akita police in Semboku, Japan, on April 1, 2019, for helping to save the life of a woman in her 90s. On March 23, the dog suddenly ran to the old woman in her pajamas crouching down on a street, but she was unable to give out identifying information, prompting the dog's owner to call the police.
