Freeley then encouraged Storm with a few "good boy" calls.

After bringing the deer to shore, it was clear that Storm was indeed trying to save the poor fawn. The deer attempted to run away once on land, but Storm stopped it and began licking and nudging the deer to make sure it was OK.

According to Fox 13, Freeley and his pups stayed with the deer until a rep from Strong Island Animal Rescue and a veterinarian arrived. The deer is currently being treated and is expected to make a full recovery from the incident.

Good boy, Storm.
