A man and a woman were on a trail by the Eagle River when one of their dogs went into the water and they went in after it. The woman went under the ice, officials said.
Officials in Alaska plan to resume on Tuesday a search for a woman who went into an Anchorage area river over the weekend to save a dog but disappeared under the ice, Alaska State Troopers said.
A man and a woman were walking on the North Fork Eagle River Trail at about 2:15 p.m. Saturday when one of their dogs went into the water, troopers said in a statement Monday.
Both of them went in the river to help the dog, but the woman disappeared after entering an open spot of water, troopers said.
That’s been my experience too. In general, many dog owners are very ignorant about keeping their pets safe.
It bothers me because it’s really selfish. Loose dogs really mess with wildlife, especially birds.
