When 84-year-old Don Gregorio Romero went missing from his home in Sonora, Mexico, it seemed like a near impossible task to find him. After days of unsuccessful searching by the authorities and family members, it was left up to one special being – his dog Palomo – for help.

Amazingly, Palomo followed his nose and led rescuers two miles across a barren desert landscape to where Romero was lying exhausted and dehydrated — but still alive.

After an incredible journey, Romero was led out of the desert to safety and taken to a hospital for treatment. Palomo remained devotedly by his side, refusing to move from outside the door until his human friend recovered.
