Good in the News: Man's Best Friend

Next time you're tempted to make Fido sleep outside or deny him an extra treat or kick him off your pillow, remember what a devoted friend he can be.

Madelus Davilmar slept through the smoke alarms as his house burned around him, filled with thick smoke. Six others in the house made it out, but his small mutt, Junior, wouldn't leave him. Junior is a barker, so Davilmar didn't think much of the noise. But the barking continued, and continued, and continued.

Waking to see what the problem was, he found his house filled with smoke, but Junior was nearby, warning him of the danger.

"We're lucky to be alive," Davilmar said.

Man's best friend, indeed.
