Mouse thrown in fire gets revenge
(not a dog story, but I'm sure we can all relate to the mouse story)
A mouse had its revenge against a homeowner who tried to dispose of it in a pile of burning leaves by running back into the man's house and setting it on fire.
Luciano Mares, 81, of Fort Sumner, in New Mexico, United States, said he caught the mouse inside his house and wanted to get rid of it. "I had some leaves burning outside, so I threw it in the fire, and the mouse was on fire and ran back at the house," Mr Mares said from a motel room.
Village fire chief Juan Chavez said the burning mouse ran just beneath a window of the house. The flames spread up the window and throughout the house. All contents of the home were destroyed. "I've seen numerous house fires," village fire department Captain Jim Lyssy said, "but nothing as unique as this one."
Fires have charred more than 21,200 hectares and destroyed 10 homes in southeastern New Mexico in recent weeks during unseasonably dry and windy conditions.
