Default Lost toddler thought to be kept alive by pet dog

Victoria Bensch ,a three year old who wandered from her Arizona home, endured a near-freezing winter night in the wilderness with her pet dog. The toddler disappeared with her Queensland heeler on Thursday night. The three-year-old was dressed only in t-shirt, pants and sneakers

Victoria is believed to have been able to survive the 14 hour cold weather ordeal by holding on to her dog Blue to keep warm. She was spotted early the next morning by a search and rescue team The loyal dog was initially protective of the girl when help arrived but reportedly moved away when it realized the rescuers were there to help.

The girl was taken to Phoenix Children's Hospital for an examination but appeared healthy and in good spirits

Heart and body warming experience. The bond formed between dogs and man is incredible. Glad to hear of her safe return.
