10. Belle the Beagle Calls 911
Kevin Weaver, a diabetic, routinely received help from his service dog, Belle the Beagle, who had been trained to detect blood sugar changes by licking Kevin’s nose and then whining to prompt him if his sugar levels were imbalanced. Amazing, she had a second talent: the ability to dial 911 on his phone should his health be in danger. One day after Weaver had collapsed from a severe seizure at home, Belle sprang into action, biting down on his cell phone to alert emergency medical services, who arrived at the scene in time to save him.
