We hear stories all the time about heroic animals saving their owners from danger.
Laney, a black Labrador from Portage, IN is a hero after biting her 13 year old owners foot repeatedly in an attempt to wake him up during a fire. The boy was having a sleepover in the basement with 2 friends. Aside from his friends, he was home alone because his parents were at work.
Firefighters arrived about 10 a.m. and found the home’s garage and eaves on fire. The damage was mostly in the attached one-car garage of the home.
The fire, which caused an estimated $25,000 in damage to the home, appeared to have started in an electrical heating unit in the garage.
Without Laney, the outcome could have been tragic. Three cheers for Laney! ![]()
