Ernst said the Associated Press Sly was initially hypothermic, but that he returned home enough on Wednesday.
Ernst noticed three horses playing on the pond when she returned home from work, which was not uncommon, AP reported. When she looked again, she saw Sly falling through the ice.
Ernst called for help before running to grab Slyev Halter to hold his head above ice.
“I lost the battle to hold it above the water,” she said. “I threw all the rope into the hole and just started pulling him in the hope of catching my rear leg and I did, and we all just started dragging myself.”
