Lucy, a recently adopted labradoodle, who found herself cold and wet on a chunk of floating ice on the Detroit River, has captured the hearts of Midwesterners who watched her daring rescue on the news and social media.

“It had such a happy outcome,” said Wyandotte Assistant Fire Chief Tom Lyon, who, along with a small crowd of first responders and residents, watched his men suit up in orange insulated wetsuits and risk their lives to save the terrified animal. “She just had those big brown eyes, and she couldn’t talk, but she probably was just so grateful.”
