Rancher’s Dog Leads Missing Toddler 7 Miles to Safety
A two-year-old boy, missing overnight from his Seligman, Arizona home, was found safe seven miles away after a sixteen-hour search. A rancher discovered the child, unharmed despite traversing mountainous terrain and potential wildlife dangers, accompanied by the rancher’s protective Anatolian Pyrenees dog, Buford. The dog, known for guarding against coyotes, seemingly led the boy to safety across rough terrain. Over forty rescuers, including a DPS helicopter, had participated in the search.
