John Hanzl recounts what happened this morning with his dog, Izzy:
Woke us up this morning (5:20am) whining, when she never does. So I took her out (live in ancient loft on top floor in south end and only people in building). Was confronted with overwhelming smell of gas on way outside. So called 911 - we are friends with firemen at the Eagle. They came - long story, building main electrical feed was shorting downstairs. and the arcing was causing ozone, that Izzy smelled and saved our lives.

Another reason to adopt a shelter dog. And I've read cats have similar abilities as well.

I had all the Mog books when I was little. I loved those stories! I had no idea that they were animated.

She's going to be such a big girl! And obviously sweet, helpful, adorable (copyright Elmer), and apparently quite flexible :) :) :)

My dog whines in the morning when she really needs to pee, and sometimes I ignore it like hitting snooze on an alarm clock. I'm screwed if this ever happens to me.
