There are plenty of stories about heroic dogs who save their humans from fires. This one has a small twist because the family dog BIT the kid on the foot to wake him up.
A black Labrador that bit a 13-year-old boy's foot repeatedly, waking him up, is being credited with saving the boy and two of his friends from a house fire. Christopher Peebles said he woke up Friday morning to feel his dog Laney biting his foot repeatedly in the basement of his family's home, where he and two friends had spent the night.
"I thought she had to go to the bathroom, but she never bites me," Peebles said Friday.

and for whatever it is worth that dog doesn't look that much like a Lab to me. :rolleyes:
