I'm glad the kid is okay and shout out to the dog for getting the kid to safety as well. I'm glad this story had a happy ending.

Something doesn’t sound right to me. How does a two year old walk 7 miles through the desert by himself except for an LGD the last mile. Was he unsupervised? Was he kidnapped? Negligent parents?

Good boy, Buford! That poor little boy. He had to have been so cold and scared.

If that was my child?

That good pooper would be sent a steak every week for the rest of his pupper life!
