Jumped in a Frozen Lake to Save a Dog (Free Write)

When i lived in Ferndale on loon lake I used to walk around the Lake with my dog and my dads dog in the spring time when it was to warm to walk on. I could see both dogs walk on the lake and fall through a bit them swim back to shore and go on again. I wasn't worried since they both seemed to get the hang of walking and falling through then swimming back. After i was getting to the end of the lake i could see my dads older dog cowboy walk out to the middle on a log then walk around, right before he was at the edge of the ice he fell through and made a little circle. I watched him for a minute or so trying to get out of the hole using his legs to pull him self out but just couldn't do it. He had been hit by a car a few years ago and had a little bit of a harder time jumping and doing things. Once i realized he was starting to bob under and take longer to come up i decided to go help him. I ran to the shoreline and took off my boots and jacket and walked in the freezing water till it was deep enough i couldn't touch and i had to swim till i reached the ice and used my forearm to break it, once he was free from the little hole he started to swim back with me to the shore and i grabbed my stuff and carried it until i got home.
