We all like to believe that our dogs care about us. We provide them with our undivided attention, food, and cuddles, but it's not like we can sit them down and genuinely inquire about their feelings.

Do dogs truly adore humans? Or do they simply tolerate us and see us as food and treat dispensers? Although we humans mistakenly interpret some dog actions as signs of affection—tail-wagging, cuddling—we might also discover a genuine relationship between dogs and their hoomans.

Since we have spent many thousand years honing the human-dog bond, it is only natural that we have grown fond of one another. Furthermore, since we have occupied their former ancestral homes, they have grown more dependent on us for their food, housing, and comfort.

Perhaps they've begun to feel the same way about us. Regardless of whether your dog loves you or not—even if we believe they do—you should still provide for their every need and give them the best life you can.

According to the Queensland Police, a fishing dog named Heidi was discovered floating in Moreton Bay, Australia, adjacent to a tackle box, a wet suit, and other things from a boat that had sunk on Thursday morning at 6 a.m. He saw a dog attempting to swim to the shore.

Along with the dog, he saw a box of cufflinks and, off in the distance, a water suit.

A fisherman’s dog, Heidi, was spotted floating next to a tackle box, a wet suit and other items from a boat that had capsized

The man made the quick decision to jump to the dog's aid, pull it out of the water, and bring it to land. He then informed the Coast Guard of all that had occurred and asked for their prompt assistance.

The man decided to rush to the rescue and take the dog out of the water and bring it to the shore

The boat had obviously capsized by that point but the rescue crew showed up without delay. During this period, the dog was constantly whining and trying to get in the water.

In the end, a man was saved after several hours of searching. And yes, he was saved by the beautiful dog and it was simply incredible.

Everything happened because the dog owner lost control of the ship, and they entered the water as a result of the sudden movement

The man later claimed that everything occurred as a result of him losing control of the ship. As a result of the ship's unexpected movement, both the man and the dog suddenly appeared in the water, but in opposing directions.

In the end, the dog had to swim for more than 12 hours to locate his human father.

They made a post on FB saying:

What an incredible doggo! Heidi tread water for 11 hours after her human’s boat sank in Moreton Bay yesterday. She was spotted by a fisherman and police launched a full-scale search for the missing skipper, finding him clinging to their overturned vessel this morning.

Not to mince words but these dogs are our angels, who were designed to watch over us and shower us with their unwavering affection and commitment. Time and time again, they've shown how much they truly love us through these acts of bravery and selflessness.
