    I love dogs. I have 2 beagles. Dogs have a sixth sense they feel things that we don't always. They sense things. We had a dog when I lived in Florida that saved out life. She smelled something in the garage and kept on barking. It so happens we had a gas leak. We all got out of the house but luckily nothing happened because we called 911 and they took care of it.

The 300 cats who attended her memorial service would probably say the latter, paying homage to a dog who endangered herself on multiple occasions to save dying or stranded cats from peril. On one particularly remarkable occasion, Ginny threw herself against a vertical pipe at a construction site so that it would topple and the stranded cats inside could escape. Another time, Ginny suffered severe cuts on her paws to find an injured cat inside a box of broken glass
