When 82-year-old Rimma Bulatova went for a walk in the woods with her dog, Raia, last Thursday afternoon, she got lost as night started to fall. To make things worse, strong winds and heavy rain forced her to seek shelter under a tree. Knowing that she’d be unable to get home alone in the dark, she told Raia to go home and get help. And the dog did not disappoint. . . .
