Description from E Homewood: Odin is a Great Pyrenees dog who had a job to do. As the fire was bearing on his owners (they only had minutes to get out), he refused to leave 8 bottle fed goats that the people couldn't take with them. Once the people reached safety, needless to say, they were quite upset at the situation. When they were allowed back unto their property after the fire and burned everything to the ground, not only did they a bedraggled Odin alive but all eight goats that he protected. He even managed to collect a few deer who need his protection as well. He's going to Okay, a bit singed, hurt paw pads but he stood by his friends.

dolllady aka Pam says:Odin definitely exhibited selfless love! Those owners are so lucky to have raised Odin in the right way. This is a terrific pick telling Odin’s story.

67Lilacs aka Wendy says:I love your pick of the day–but the endearing story of Odin has melted my heart and brought tears to my eyes. If only people were as loving and loyal as our pets.
From my Mac dictionary:
Odin |ˈōdən| (also Woden or Wotan) Scandinavian Mythology
the supreme god and creator, god of victory and the dead. Wednesday is named after him.
