Dog Saves the Day for Small Bird

Diamond is a Jack Russell terrier who lives in Iceland. His owner Gunnar Kr Sigurjónsson has a heartwarming story to tell about Diamond and a bird they named Bibi.

One day, Diamond came in the house whining and bidding Gunnar to follow him outside.  What follows will melt the heart of dog (and Bird) lovers everywhere.

Recently, the Jack Russell terrier was at home in Iceland with his dad, Gunnar Kr Sigurjónsson, when he saw something outside that had him very concerned. Gunnar was at the computer doing some work at the time when he noticed Diamond walk in, wine, then turn back around as if to lead him somewhere. He insisted on not being ignored.

“When I didn’t follow, he came back and whined some more,” Gunnar told The Dodo. “I knew he didn’t need to do his business, as we had just been for a walk, so finally I gave in and followed him.”

Diamond, now running, led his dad straight to the balcony where a small bird was lifeless on the ground.

“I immediately thought the bird was dead, so I called Diamond inside,” said Gunnar. “Then I thought I saw the bird blink an eye.”
