Great story...thanks for posting. I wanted to be able to share this so I looked it up. What I found is a little different from the way USA Today reported it. Here's a quote.
"A home is destroyed but a family of 3 is alive thanks to Thor, the pit bull being called a hero.
Around 3 a.m. Thursday a family slept soundly as fire ripped through their home.
Pit bull Thor tried to wake both Kemper Hunter and Sarah Laughlin, asleep on the couch.
Neither woke up, so Thor kept barking – even biting his owner, Hunter.
“He started barking, it made me upset, so I sat up,” said Hunter. “There it was, our house on fire,” he said.
“It's just engulfed in flames and smoke everywhere,” added Hunter.
Meantime, Thor was busy.
"He had my infant, my 3-month-old little girl, bassinet and all, grabbed by the ruffles and drug to the front door, ready to go. He's a hero, he saved our lives,” said Hunter."
Regardless of the details, Thor is a real hero...a regular Rin-Tin-Tin.
Ooopps,, almost forgot. Here's a link to the story I referenced.
