Australian police have praised a dog for remaining with a three‑year‑old girl as she spent a night lost in bush land.
The girl, Aurora, had been the subject of a large search after she wandered away from her home in Queensland.
She was followed by her family's 17‑year‑old cattle dog, Max, who is partially deaf and blind.
The dog stayed with the girl for 16 hours before relatives found them on a hillside.
Relatives said Aurora had taken shelter with the dog under a rock.
