About PLEASE READ THE ABOUT:

This photo is not meant to be a masterpiece, it's only a family's snapshot.
Jerry, a 3- years-old " Cane Corso " ( Corso Dog ) saved Luigi's life.
Luigi fell from a very steep stair hitting his head and breaking his bones.
He was in no position to cry out for help because he could hardly breathe and the people in the house were downstairs with the TV on and his faint cries couldn't be heard.
Only Jerry heard them and started to bark in order to attract attention, but the maid thought that he wanted to go out for his walk.
So, when he realized that he wasn't understood, he grabbed the maid's sleeve and dragged her high up on the medieval tower where the accident took place and she finally could call an ambulance and bring him to the E. R.
Now Luigi is the Hospital with several serious fractures, in traction, and will be operated tomorrow.
If it weren't for Jerry, nobody knows if he could have made it out!!
Thank you, Jerry!!!!


Questa foto non č un capolavoro, č solo un'istantanea di famiglia del nostro cane Corso di 3 anni, Jerry mentre dorme sul suo divano preferito.
Colgo l'occasione per ringraziarlo pubblicamente per aver salvato la vita a Luigi.
Luigi č precipitato da una scala molto ripida procurandosi gravi fratture scomposte e battendo la testa.
Impossibilitato a chiamare soccorso, in quanto respirava a malapena ed i domestici erano al piano terreno con la televisione accesa e non potevano udire le sue flebili grida di aiuto, solo Jerry si č reso conto della gravitā della situazione ed ha cominciato ad abbaiare furiosamente.
I domestici hanno pensato che volesse uscire per la sua passegiata in giardino, ma quando ha capito di essere stato frainteso, ha afferrato la manica della Signora e l'ha condotta sul luogo dell'incidente, nella torre medievale.
Cosė facendo, ha fatto in modo che potesse chiamare un'ambulanza e fosse portato d'urgenza al Pronto Soccorso.
Adesso Luigi č ricoverato e sarā operato domani.
Se non fosse stato per l'aiuto di Jerry, forse non sarebbe sopravvissuto.
Grazie Jerry per averlo salvato!

Antonella

Ecco perchč si dice che i cani sono i migliori amici dell'uomo! Un'episodio analogo č capitato anche a me ed il mio Zeb, un pastore tedesco a pelo lundo, grande e grosso, la mia anima gemella versione canina, praticamente impazsiva, cercando di aiutarmi. Un'ottimo tributo.

What a wonderful story, Antonella, of this dog's heroics. They are amazing animals. I am glad to hear that Luigi is recuperating and Jerry looks like he is getting a well-deserved rest after saving him. Jerry has a beautiful glossy black coat.
