'Don't Jump!': 180-Pound St. Bernard Rescued From Rooftop

http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2018/06/10/st-bernard-dog-rescue/

Sorry I don't know how to embed this video. But it's definitely worth the click to see the dog. It's on a small patch of rooftop over a porch. The dog was contemplating jumping off and onto the garage roof -- across a rather large chasm.

Well, here's one I found on YouTube:

For another dog that is more at home on a roof:

Family Says Their Dog Willingly Spends His Time on Roof: 'We Know He's Up There'

I can't embed that one either, but I found a Youtube video (below). But I like the video in the link above quite a bit more

They kept a second story window open and he would go out and stay up on the roof for long periods of time. It was so strange to see. I kept wondering how they didn't have bugs flying in all the time as that window stayed open year round.
