I would do the same thing if a shark came after any of my kids. That little guy is adorable. He is expected to make a full recovery. The guy adopted him from a shelter. A true hero!

I just saw that on the tv. That shark was in the marina!
OM Gosh! I guess we would all at least attempt to do that, but how scary! That was a small dog and he had wounds, but didn't lose a limb or anything major! Unbelievable.
The closest I can say I came to that was picking up a GARDNER snake (so NOT dangerous) that had a frog in it's mouth (it was my pond frog from the back yard -- not a random one!), and flinging it around against the ground until it let go. Trust me -- it probably looked as crazy as it sounds. PS.. snakes stink when they are stressed! Learn something new every day!Everyone Deserves a Lifetime

This just made my day.
You can see the compassion in the dad's eyes as he tells the horrifying tale of seeing a shark come after his little dog. That poor little terrier......he looks so traumatized. 
I just want to give him a tiny little hug for being so brave.
