In Connecticut, a boxer dog named Reggie helped save his French bulldog housemate, Yogi, during a severe epileptic seizure. Yogi’s owner, Sarah McArdle Strilka, said Reggie’s intervention, despite limited prior exposure to Yogi’s seizures, was crucial in keeping Yogi alive for three hours until help arrived according to a report on CBS News and on Instagram. According to Facebook, she stated, “If it wasn’t for Reggie, Yogi would not be alive today.” Yahoo reported that Yogi suffers from “severe epilepsy.” Instagram and Facebook accounts reporting on the event https://www.instagram.com/insta_dog/reel/DJrfoehJNJX/ , note that Reggie’s actions were particularly remarkable given the limited experience he had with Yogi’s seizures.
