Offering further proof that dogs are THEE BEST, a guide dog named Orlando is being credited with helping to save his owner, who fainted in a New York City subway station, sending the two tumbling onto the subway tracks.

According to the Associated Press, Cecil Williams is still unsure why he passed out. He said that Orlando tried to hold him up, barking frantically before they both went over the edge. Bystanders called for help, the subway driver was able to slow the train, and Cecil and Orlando suffered only minor injuries.
