In a gripping tale of loyalty and courage, a pet dog named Johnny thwarted a violent attack on his owner in Gujarat’s Mitana village under Tankara taluka. 

The incident reportedly occurred around 2 AM on April 12 when three unknown assailants scaled the wall of a farm house and launched a sudden attack on Amitbhai Theba, who was asleep on a cot outside his field-side home.
