[LM_NET] GEN:Animals and disasters

[Josephine Dervan <rderva@INFIONLINE.NET>]

There was an amazing story in a paper in Toronto, Canada this AM about a
dog who saved a 7 year old from the water during the tsunami. His Mom had 3
young boys and only 2 hands, She grabbed onto the 2 youngest boys and
assumed the older one would be able to fend for himself. Instead he tried
to hide from the water in a shack the family owned. The family dog, shown
in the accompanying photo, grabbed the 7 year old by the collar and dragged
him out of the shack just before the water hit it.

I was traveling and didn't remember the name of the paper to send along a
link. I think the author was a local writer and not an AP writer.
