Andi Davise，49，regularly crossed the trail through the Phoenix Mountains Preserve with a few other hikers before sunrise.This morning，however，she met nobody and heard only the sounds of animals.

She greeted in a low and soft voice to show she was friendly.The bull dog shook when he heard her voice.

Andi inched closer and dropped some water into the dog's mouth.He tried to stand up but failed.Something was wrong with his left front leg.Andi pulled out her phone to contact her husband，Jason，but he didn't respond.She knew that if she didn't carry the dog down the mountain，he would die.
