Runaway dog in Russia saved by passing cyclist in heartwarming rescue

It started with my forgetting to buy some milk in a shop. I had to go back and get it. As I left the shop and was about to take me bike and go home, I heard some noise coming from across the street. It was this Retriever dog who somehow got stuck in its leash tied to a scooter (probably that’s how her master left her at the shop entrance while she went shopping inside). The poor dog was jumping around and running back and forth in a panic. Senya (her name) almost got run over by several cars and then when she finally shook the scooter off her, she whipped off past me like a bullet not even knowing where she was going. Then I saw her master jump out of the shop and start shouting her name. So I took the initiative and headed in the direction where Senya ran. I asked several people on my way if they had seen a dog running by, and they somehow lead me to this park where I and Polina (Senya’s master, a little girl who came to the same place all in tears) started looking for her together. We asked several people in the park and then something happened and I lost Polina who went looking somewhere else. It hadn’t even been 10 minutes when I came to this football field and found the dog. Her paws were all bleeding. I was super glad to have found her but now I didn’t know where Polina was. So I told Senya to stay there (not sure she got me though) and had to take the risk and cycle all around the area again to find the girl. Luckily, I had my bike with me. Finally, I found Polina’s mom who joined the daughter and I brought them to the place. These emotions are precious! In the video I say to the girl, “I told you I would find her” and I’m glad I kept my word. I’m happy to have helped these strangers and hope nothing like that will happen again.
