Dog saying goodbye to dying officer suddenly senses something odd and stops the doctor
Officer Cory Masterson was ambushed during a chase, struck in the head, and fell unconscious in the woods. His loyal dog, Reno, ran to his aid, stopping a knife-wielding attacker by grabbing his arm, despite injury. Reno held on until the assailant fled. Hearing sirens, Reno led arriving officers to Cory, who was rushed to the hospital with a severe skull fracture and internal bleeding, slipping into a coma.
Reno waited outside the ICU, then stayed by Cory’s side when he was transferred home with a nurse. Three months later, Reno sensed a change, urgently waking the nurse by scratching her door. She found Cory’s fingers moving—his first sign of recovery. Over time, Cory began speaking and walking, though fragile.
One night, Cory collapsed, seizing. Reno alerted the nurse, who found him foaming at the mouth and called medics. Despite CPR failing, Reno refused to let doctors near, barking fiercely. Moments later, Cory coughed, revived by a rare phenomenon called the Lazarus effect. Reno’s unwavering belief in his friend’s survival defied all odds, proving a dog’s loyalty can sense life where even doctors see none.
