Hero dog summons help for fellow canine which fell through the ice.

A dog in Illinois is being hailed a hero after coming to the rescue of a canine companion that fell the ice of a lake into the freezing waters below.
The desperate situation occurred in Andalusia as Water and Sewage Treatment were breaking for lunch.
Suddenly a dog came up to the group of men barking, running in circles and trying to get their attention.
That's when they realized a second dog had fallen into the nearby lake.
'The dog had been there a long time,' Matt Stark, a worker at the treatment plant, told ABC News.
You could tell when we first got there it was howling like giving its last goodbyes or it was in pain, because we think it had been in the water about an hour.
'I told the guys we gotta hurry because the dog wasn’t holding its head up no more.'
The men called the emergency number, but quickly got to work trying to save the near-drowning dog, which has since been identified as Buck.
They pushed a boat up to the end of the ice and used a snare to drag the 10-year-old black Labrador out of the water.
'He just was shivering as can be,' Stark said.
