"I think the dog definitely meant to lead them there"

As firefighters searched the scene for Travers’ car on State Road 84 in Davie, they stumbled upon his German shepherd, Simon, limping on the side of the road, Belizaire told the newspaper.

Simon helped lead the firefighters to Travers’ car, which was about a quarter mile away. When they reached Travers, Simon circled him twice and licked him, trying to get a response, before he jumped in the car and waited.
