Man jumps into icy water to save two dogs

Melissa Kho and her husband, Timofey Yuriev, were walking along a trail in Irvington, NY when they spotted two dogs trying to cross a ice-covered lake. The dogs fell through the ice and couldn’t get out. After paddling in place for five minutes, the dogs began to give up and that’s when Yuriev sprang into action. He undressed, swam into the water and started breaking the ice to create a path for the first dog to escape.While he was on the water, Yuriev’s own dog jumped in and helped rescue the first dog.
