This story just proves how smart and loyal dogs really are.

A Petoskey man walked out of his house on New Year's Eve to grab a log for his fireplace. While outside, he slipped and fell and injured his neck.

The guy called for help but no one came, except for his golden retriever Kelsey. Kelsey stayed by his side, keeping him warm in 24 degree weather for 20 hours. If not for this dog, the man would have surely died according to his doctor.
