Sheep Stranded in Flood Saved by Heroic Dog

Turns out Patsy is not a patsy. Patsy is a Welsh sheepdog who is being called a hero after she saved three ewes stranded by 🌊Flooding in Flintshire. 

The Independent shared a video farmer Llyr Derwydd took on Friday. Derwydd, 44, said, “We thought we’d better go check, make sure all the sheep are safe, and that’s when we saw the three ewes stranded on this little spot on the field.”

“It was getting smaller and smaller so we thought we’d better get them off and make sure they’re safe,” he went on.

Concerned for the sheep, Derwydd noted, “I just thought, ‘I’ll see if the dog will go.’”

Not only did his dog Patsy go, she swam clear across and herded the sheep to safety. Derwydd said, “It was quite dangerous because I didn’t know how deep it was.”

“I knew she was quite a good swimmer otherwise I wouldn’t have done that, but I was quite surprised that she didn’t have any issues,” he concluded. “(It) saved me getting wet and getting into a dangerous situation and saved the sheep so it was perfect.”

How does on reward such bravery. Someone on social media suggested a T-bone steak, but Derwydd said that as a working dog her treat was “a pat on her head,” being told “she’s a good girl” and an extra dog biscuit, The Independent reported.
