'Hero' dog saves Frenchie during seizure — and watches him for hours, video shows
An epileptic French bulldog was saved by a 16-month-old boxer after having a seizure in Connecticut, the dogs' 'thankful' owner said.
Sarah McArdle of Milford took to Facebook to share that she had been unsure about getting another dog after already having Yogi, according to the May 7 video.
Now, she's certain it was the 'best decision ever,' McArdle wrote in the post.
She had left for work and didn't return until the evening when she saw Yogi was 'blue in color,' she said.
McArdle's boxer named Reggie was caught on video 'rolling him over' instinctively during a seizure to help prevent aspiration before watching over him for over five hours and barking for help, the post said.
'Reggie saved Yogi's life yesterday, and it's a testament to the profound impact that animals can have on each other's lives,' McArdle said.
As for Reggie's reward for being a 'hero' — he was scheduled to be given steak, she wrote.
Commenters of the post were in agreement that Reggie's reward was fitting, with one person saying, 'Stop it! I'm crying omg.'
'Dogs are the best,' another said.
'Wow! That's incredible!,' someone wrote.
Milford is about a 10-mile drive southwest from New Haven.

Judge rules 'Jay Baker'-related records lawsuit against city of Santa Fe may proceed
A state district judge Tuesday ruled a lawsuit against the city of Santa Fe over public records tied to pseudonymous Facebook gossipmonger "Jay Baker" can move forward, despite the city's motion seeking dismissal of the case. Attorney Ken Stalter — who had represented a plaintiff in a similar civil case — alleges the city failed to release all Baker-related records in response to his request. Baker is known for stirring the pot with scathing social media assessments — some of them libelous — about local officials, candidates for public office and others. Posts on the character's popular Facebook account drew an ethics complaint in 2023 accusing him of buying digital ads during the municipal election criticizing City Council candidates in violation of campaign finance laws. This prompted the city to spend more than $5,000 on an investigation aimed at discovering the identity of the person or people behind the controversial posts. A Santa Fe resident's request for public records related to the ethics complaint — and the fruitless search for Baker's true identity — led to a lawsuit alleging, like Stalter's complaint, the city hadn't turned over all documents tied to the request. The city agreed to a financial settlement with that plaintiff. Assistant City Attorney Kevin Nault argued in court Tuesday that Stalter was acting in "bad faith" because he had filed multiple records complaints against the city, including some mirroring those of clients he has represented. Stalter's complaint should be thrown out in part because he improperly named the city as the defendant instead of naming the records custodian, as required by law, Nault said. He argued Stalter's request to amend the complaint to name the custodian as the defendant should be denied. Stalter's attorney, David Demic, argued Tuesday it was "legal fiction" the records custodian was separate from the city, which would ultimately represent her. He also argued Stalter should be allowed to amend the complaint and have it decided on its merits rather than the technicality. "It does not matter if Mr. Stalter brings one claim, 15 claims or 100 claims," Demic said, adding what matters was the merits of each case. Judge Bryan Biedscheid ruled in favor of Stalter, denying the city's motion to dismiss the suit, and granted Stalter's motion to amend the complaint. Other issues raised by the parties could be explored as the case moves forward, the judge said.

Chelsea in desperate need of a new goalkeeper; approach this star
As the summer transfer window is officially opened, Chelsea are not letting any opportunities go off their hand. By Ravi Kumar Jha Published on June 4, 2025, 08:29 IST As the summer transfer window is officially opened, Chelsea are not letting any opportunities go off their hand as they want all their targets to end up at Stamford Bridge. The blues are also in the market for a new goalkeeper as they feel Sanchez is not enough. Thus, AC Milan's Mike Maignan has been approached by them for the next season. The goalkeeper is on the radar of Enzo Maresca and direct contacts are expected to be done soon. With the summer transfer window now officially open, Chelsea are wasting no time in making moves to bolster their squad. Determined to land their top targets, the Blues are actively pursuing reinforcements across the pitch — and a new goalkeeper appears to be high on the list. Despite Robert Sánchez playing a decent role last season, Chelsea remain unconvinced about his long-term reliability. As a result, the club has turned its attention to AC Milan's shot-stopper Mike Maignan, who has emerged as a prime target for the upcoming campaign. Reports suggest that new head coach Enzo Maresca is keen on the French international, viewing him as a potential upgrade between the sticks. Chelsea have already made initial approaches, and direct contacts with Milan are expected to follow shortly. Maignan, known for his commanding presence and sharp reflexes, would bring both experience and quality to Stamford Bridge.

No, Taylor Swift & Bruce Springsteen Didn't Perform After Donald Trump's Comment
After Donald Trump made critical comments about and Bruce Springsteen, rumors regarding the two music stars performing together in defiance of the businessman-turned-politician started spreading like wildfire. However, with both artists having a massive fan following, users on the internet have come out to question if such an event actually took place. So, here's everything you need to know about whether Swift and Springsteen joined hands to conduct a concert in response to Trump's criticizing statements. At the time of writing, Taylor Swift and Bruce Springsteen have not taken to the stage with one another. Additionally, the two stars haven't shared any information regarding a potential collaboration in the near future. Speculation about the pair coming together for a performance started to take shape after Facebook accounts such as Rock N' Roll Mania and Rock & Roll Universe shared posts claiming that Swift and Springsteen had organized a duet concert. Falsely noting that they did so in order to respond to Donald Trump, the said posts read, 'When Bruce Springsteen and Taylor Swift took the stage together, it wasn't just a duet—it was a statement. As the two icons stood shoulder to shoulder, the arena erupted in thunderous applause, drowning out the noise of viral criticism that had trailed them online.' The posts even mentioned that the pair received a massive reaction from the live audience, with fans weeping, cheering, and holding up signs that read, 'We Stand With You.' However, such assertions have since been debunked. The photos used in the aforementioned posts actually showcased the artists performing on two separate occasions. While the featured Bruce Springsteen snippets highlighted his performances from his November 2022 and April 2023 concerts, the one highlighting Taylor Swift was from her November 2023 show in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Moreover, the source links provided under these posts either redirected users to random websites or to videos of Springsteen and Swift performing on their own. Such rumors began to make their way onto the internet after Donald Trump took to Truth Social to issue searing remarks about both Springsteen and Swift. While Springsteen wasted no time in replying to the Republican politician, Taylor Swift has yet to provide an official statement regarding the situation.
