A Staffodshire bull terrier named Bush survived for almost for two weeks by eating a dead bird and drinking water from a fall before he was finally rescued by a military helicopter in Britain. Bush reportedly lost his way on a cliff ledge while his owner Margie Brett was on holiday in the area. The Daily Mail said the dog survived by eating a crow and drinking from a waterfall that runs along the 100-foot cliffs in North Devon. Currently Bush is being treated by a veterinarian and will be reunited with Brett and her husband in a few days.

The fact that the dog is the most faithful animal ever was proved yet again when a pet dog in southern Japan helped rescuers find her 88-year-old owner, who went missing the day before. According to police reports, the pilot of a police helicopter looking for the missing man spotted his 11-year-old female dog, named Maru, in an orange field about a half mile away. This led police to believe that the old man too would be at the same place, thus leading to his rescue.
