Yogi was then taken to a veterinarian and was deemed to be good.

"It's a truly heartwarming moment that showcases the power of companionship and instinct," McArdle posted on Facebook. "This video is just one example of how Reggie saved Yogi's life yesterday, and it's a testament to the profound impact that animals can have on each other's lives."
"FYI, Reggie is getting a steak today," she continued.
