  • Shark Tale

    Is it just me or is the following just crazy: I just read where a man from the Florida Keys jumped in to save his pet dog from a shark! He took his dog for a swim and a 5-foot shark paid them a visit. It nearly swallowed the dog whole. Greg LeNoir got his dog back by hitting the shark in the back causing...
