Scott Dunn, residing in Georgia was woken up on his couch by his 3.5 year old boxer named Duncan, thinking his dog just wanted to go to the bathroom or eat. He was shocked to realize that his house was full of smoke, and that he needed to get out.

Duncan was covered up with me, and I fell asleep, and the next thing I knew, he was poking at me and barking. Normally, that means he needs to go out, but when I woke up, I couldn’t see because there was smoke.
Dunn, in a hurry, grabbed his car keys, and Duncan's collar, and rushed for his truck, but when he got outside, had only collar in hand, with no pooch. He was tempted to go back inside, but was forced not to by his neighbors. Duncan was found lying on Dunn's bed, where he had slept for the past 2 years, dead.

That's my boy. He saved my life. He saved my life, but I couldn't return the favor. It was too hot in there. I couldn't get back in there.
Firefighters put out the flame, but most of the house was burnt during the event.

Hero Dog On Highway
Source:You must login or register to view this content.
In the latter part of 2008 just about every Television Station in the world covered the story '
og Saves Dog On Highway', 'og Risks Life To Save Injured Friend' and 'og Saves Another Dog On Freeway'. The video footage of this remarkable canine rescue captured the hearts of many and there were numerous offers to adopt the hero dog and the animal which was rescued.
The video footage was spliced together from that taken by security and traffic control cameras on the Costanera Norte Highway in Santiago, Chile. The original Spanish language commentary related to the problems of the numerous feral dogs and the risks which they caused to traffic. There was no mention of a hero dog or dog saving. The captured scene did however capture the publics attention.
The various English Language Western Television Stations all had their own interpretation on the scene. Some of the commentaries are quite flowery.
