A dog in Wichita, Kansas, saved his owner by waking him up when their house caught fire, according to KAKE news.
Tyler Revel, the man who was napping, attributes his safety to his dog, Monroe, according to the source. Revel had fallen asleep while watching football. While he was asleep, a fire broke out.
Monroe, a 6-year-old pit bull, woke up Revel by jumping onto the bed and crying for him to wake up. Once awake, Revel saw a cloud of smoke and barely made it out from the flames spreading throughout his home, according to the source.
