What started off like any other day at summer camp quickly turned into a nightmare for Mexican teen Juan Heriberto Trevino. Fortunately, a heroic Labrador Retriever named Max was there to help him through what might otherwise have been a fatal ordeal.

Lost and stuck at the bottom of the ravine for 44 hours, Max faced frozen temperatures when night fell. Max – who had only met the 14-year-old earlier that day – refused to leave his side, and huddled together with him for warmth as temperatures plummeted.

‘I grabbed [Max] and put him on my legs to not be so cold and hugged the dog.”
According to the teen, Max later helped guide him to a water source so they could both get something to drink. As search parties combed the mountains in search of the teen, he and his companion slept under a tree and waited out the freezing nights together.

The local police chief commented on just how lucky Juan was to have Max around during his two days lost in the mountains. The teenager was interested in adopting his newfound friend, but was happy to return him to his current owner when he found out the heroic lab already had a loving home.
