Dog Saves Owner, Then Dies Trying To Save Cat
After a disabled woman's cat started a house fire, her specially trained dog came to the rescue, then died trying to rescue the cat.
Jamie Hanson of Wisconsin said her 13-year-old dog Jesse was responsible for saving her life.
Hanson said she fell off the couch and was unable to get her artificial leg from the table, "so my dog got my leg for me and went and got the phone and brought the phone to me so I could call 911".
"She got me outside and then she heard the cat upstairs and she went up there to get the cat and she wouldn't come back to me," Hanson, said as she was being treated for her injuries.
Hanson, who lost a leg in a car accident three years ago, said she was on the couch watching television when the cat ran over the back of the couch.
"And he jumped onto a table that had a candle on it and tipped it over and lighted the artificial plants on fire," she said.
Unfortunately, Hanson lost both her pets in the fire.
