Hamdü Sena and her family operate a small farm, where they raise goats for their milk. She serves as goatherd, the animals’ protector and guide.

Her dog, Tomi, is always by her side to help, even during the cold winter months.

“After the goat gave birth, I led the rest of the herd back to their shelter,” Hamdü Sena told The Dodo. “Then I grabbed two backpacks from the house and went back to the goat and her baby with Tomi.”

Once back at the spot, Hamdü Sena loaded the mother goat into her backpack, and put the fragile baby into the other. Tomi саrried her.

“He’s a good dog,” Hamdü Sena said. “Very smart.”

Together, they slogged through the steep, wintery terrain to bring the new family to safety.

“The snow was so thick, I was exhausted,” said Hamdü Sena. “But it was worth it.”

She was joined near the end of the trek by her brother, who саptured photos of the гeѕсᴜe in action.
