Retriever alerts three to fire in home
A year after the death of her fiance, Saundra Frazer was awakened by the dog he brought into her life, whose barks and nudges alerted her to a fire in her home.
Frazer, 27, and the couple with whom she shared a home in Lake Worth, Fla., both credit Bubba, a 7-year-old golden retriever, with saving them from the fire.
Bubba’s barks awoke Frazer and Lori and Charles McCauley, who lived in the back of the house.
Frazer’s fiance was the one who brought Bubba into her life when they lived in Fort Lauderdale, the Palm Beach Post reports.
“He’s a champ,” says Charles McCauley. “He’s a hero. If we didn’t get out, it was going to overwhelm us.”
All three, and Bubba, were staying in a West Palm Beach hotel after the fire, courtesy of the local Red Cross.
