A Kentucky teenager managed to rescue herself and her dog from rapidly rising floodwaters after creating a makeshift float to take the small canine to safety. The teen tried to call 911 but couldn’t get through, and realized that she and her dog, Sandy, needed to escape. Advertisement“I put Sandy in the water momentarily to see if she could swim,” she told CNN. On Facebook, her father, Terry Adams, called his daughter a “hero” and shared a photo of the two on the barely exposed roof awaiting rescue. “He does amazing things for the community on a daily basis,” Terry Adams told WHAS11 News.
