‘Well Done, Dogesh Bhai': German Shepherd Jumps Off Balcony To ‘Save Kids' From Stray Dog
Last Updated:
Reacting to the video, one social media user called the German Shepherd 'a silent guardian and a watchful protector.'
A heartwarming video is winning hearts across social media, thanks to a brave German Shepherd who protected children from a stray dog. The clip, reportedly from a residential area in Rishikesh, shows the loyal pet springing into action, leaping down and chasing the stray away to keep the kids safe.
The footage begins with the German Shepherd inside a house, watching over the street from behind a wall as children run past. When a stray dog starts following them, the alert canine immediately jumps off the wall to confront and drive it away.
The dog's swift reaction has been widely praised online, though the exact background and authenticity of the video have not been officially verified. The clip was shared on X (formerly Twitter) with the caption, 'A dog jumped like a superhero to save children from another dog."

Supreme Court Orders Action On Stray Dogs
On Monday, the Supreme Court directed the Delhi government and the civic bodies of Noida, Gurugram, and Ghaziabad to capture stray dogs, sterilise them, and relocate them permanently to shelters within eight weeks.
A bench comprising Justices J.B. Pardiwala and R. Mahadevan instructed that dog shelters capable of housing around 5,000 stray dogs be established, with adequate staff assigned for sterilisation and vaccination. The Court made it clear that once moved to these shelters, stray dogs must not be released back onto streets, residential colonies, or public places.
'We need to pick up round up with whatever means to ensure dog free locality, and that's how children and the aged will feel safe. Have you seen the classic 'Good, Bad and the Ugly' – when you want to shoot, shoot, don't talk. It's not the time to talk but act," the Supreme Court said.
The bench further stressed, 'Infants and young children, not at any cost, should not fall prey to rabies. The action should inspire confidence that they can move freely without fear of being bitten by stray dogs. No sentiments should be involved."
The top court also warned that strict action would be taken against any individual or organisation attempting to obstruct the authorities' efforts to capture and shelter stray dogs.
