Dog wakes family in burning Te Awamutu house

A frantic dog woke a man and his three daughters after a fire filled their Te Awamutu house with smoke early today. The four were saved in what firefighters said was a textbook rescue started by the dog, who raised the alarm even before smoke alarms sounded.

The man and his daughters were sleeping in the upstairs rooms of the house when he was woken by his dog which went "off his head" shortly after 5am when fire broke out in a downstairs garage and began to fill the house with smoke.

The fire was thought to have started in the electric motor of an appliance in the garage.
