Here’s a wonderful story about how a community, and a news team, came together to ensure that a young Black Lab made it home after being stranded on the ice of Lake Erie for several days. When neighbors spotted Kimberly way out on the the melting ice, the police were called in, but there was no way for them to get to the dog.

It took some doing, but there’s a happy ending.
