Our magnificent, noble young hero dog, with his superb nose and acute hearing, kept snoring until I woke him up and carried him out of the house. I really wanted to be able to tell the story of how this glorious animal saved our lives, but No. He was useless. That's okay; we love him anyway.
Years ago I came home to a burning house. I ran in and carried out an 80 pound fish tank. It took four men to carry it back in. I RESCURED A STUPID TANK OF FISH!!! From a fire!! They didn’t even have a pump so unless the temp got really really hot, the fish were going to be okay.
