Small But Mighty
Don’t let his pint-sized pup fool you – Junior is as big of a hero as any of the other dogs on this list. The 14-year old Shih Zhu mix saved a house full of people from a deadly fire by creating quite a ruckus. After a fire erupted in the home of his owner Madelous Davilmar in the middle of the night and neither Madelous or his six guests staying at the time woke up, Junior took action. He barked as loudly as possible waking everyone up in the home. “Junior’s a quiet dog and he started making a lot of noise,” Davilmar said. Thankfully enough noise to wake up the whole house. They were all about the safely escape in the nick of time.
