He's missing a lot of hair, but a Siberian husky has a new name and a new life, thanks to a construction worker and police officer who rescued him from a railroad track minutes before a train arrived.
Jeremy Majorowicz thought it was a little strange that the dog had been sitting on the track for an hour-and-a-half in the cold, and stranger still that he wouldn't accept a bite of muffin.Majorowicz called police and when Officer Tim Strand arrived Monday and would not come to him, so he called animal control officer Al Heyde, who also couldn't get the dog to budge.
Strand pulled hard on the dog's tail and was able to release him, but the dog lost a lot of hair.Just 10 minutes later, a train came down the track.The dog was taken to the Chippewa County Humane Association, where workers named him "Ice Train."
