Rancher's dog guides 2-year old to safety.

Scotty Dunton, of Dunton Ranch, said he had heard about the missing child, identified as Boden Allen, in the local news, and was shocked when he saw a toddler matching the missing child’s description wandering onto his property alongside his dog, Buford.

“I’d heard about the missing child before I was going to town, and when I was driving out the driveway I noticed my dog was sitting down by the entrance,” the rancher told KPHO. “I look up, and there’s a little kid standing there with my dog.”

The boy wandered seven miles from his home in Seligman, crossed rough canyon lands, and endured a cold night in the desert before proceeding to Dunton’s Ranch.
