It is really no myth that dolphins are intelligent and compassionate creatures. In fact, a pod of dolphins swimming in the canal on Marco Island, Florida, proved beyond any shadow of a doubt just how compassionate they can be.
The dolphins came across a drowning dog, an 11-year-old Doberman Pinscher named Turbo belonging to local resident Cindy Burnett. Turbo had escaped on a Sunday night after his gate was left open; when the dolphins found him, Turbo had been missing for 15 hours.
