Ex-Giant Jeremy Affeldt shares story of how he saved his dog's life

Jeremy Affeldt was out in his barn with his son, tending to his 6-month-old goat when he heard his wife, Larissa, screaming his name.

The three-time Giants World Series champion admitted he felt he was taking care of his "honey-do list," so at first, he wanted to be left alone. But he heard his sister-in-law yell "He's dying!"

He's dying?

He asked his son, Walker, if he heard that correctly. Walker confirmed.

Affeldt, a family man, is surrounded by kids, so to hear screams followed by such an alarming term immediately sent him into panic mode.
