Dog Saves Butler County Woman From Burning House

Dog Alerts Owner When Kitchen Catches Fire

A dog saved a Butler County woman from her burning home Wednesday.

Dorothy Bordine's dog Queenie is a new edition to the family.

Wednesday morning, the 82-year-old was in a back room when her kitchen caught fire.

Queenie made sure Bordine got out of the house.

Bordine said, "She was just barking and jumping up and down. It was very unlike her. At first I thought the door bell was ringing because I couldn't hear it down there. That wasn't it at all and I realized there was something wrong."

Bordine said she probably would have lost the house if it wasn't for Queenie.
