People Are Awesome: Photographer Helps Man Get His Dog Back

The next time you catch yourself crying on a street corner, just hope that Maria Sanchez is taking clandestine photos of you.

Last week, Dave Thomas, a San Bernardino man, was briefly jailed for failure to appear in court for traffic violations, leading to the impoundment of his dog on Feb. 13.

Upon release, Buzz Lightyear, his 2-year-old pit bull mix, was waiting for him. But Thomas couldn't pay the $400 to get his pet back. That's when Sanchez stepped in.
