Dog plucks boy from raging river

Tossed from a raft and struggling to get to shore as he was swept down the roiling Roaring Fork River south of Glenwood Springs over the weekend, 9-year-old Ryan Rambo was yelling for help and needed a hero.

It came in the form of a yellow Labrador retriever.

Zion - not yet 2 years old and decidedly untrained, according to his owner - swam out to the frightened Glenwood lad and returned to shore with the youngster clinging to his collar.
