The National Enquirer is reporting that Chad Lowe saved a dog who was tired and worn out on in Malibu on March 2nd.

He came out of the surf, according to a witness, and saw a distraught woman over a distressed dog. Apparently the woman had walked the dog for a mile down the rocky coastline and the dog couldn’t handle it, was exhausted and dehydrated and started drinking water from the ocean.

He urged other guys nearby to help and put the dog, a German Shepherd mix onto his board and carried the dog to the woman’s car so she could take it to the vet.
