I second that.  I love the book so far, but haven't gotten the 
chance to finish it.  Thunder Dog rules.

I hate to disappoint you but this did not happen. Anyone in that 
vicinity
was killed, because that is where the plane hit. If you want to 
read the
story of someone who really got out alive with their guide dog, 
who helped
others escape as well, read Thunder Dog by Michael Hingson. You 
can purchase
it from any book store and the National Library Service has 
already recorded
it. It's a very uplifting story.

 Hello my friends, I read tis and thought it was a great story 
for anyone
 that loves dogs or has any compassionat for animals and people 
alike! your
 friend, Kirk

 NOT ALL HEROS ARE PEOPLE - MEANING OF SELFLESS LOVE

 James Crane worked on the 101st floor of Tower 1 of the World 
Trade Center
 .. He is blind so he has a golden retriever named Daisy.

            After the plane hit 20 stories below, James knew that 
he was
 doomed, so he let Daisy go, out of an act of love. She darted 
away into
 the
 darkened hallway. Choking on the fumes of the jet fuel and the 
smoke James
 was just waiting to die. About 30 minutes later, Daisy comes 
back along
 with
 James' boss, who Daisy just happened to pick up on floor 112









                        On her first run of the building, she 
leads James,
 James' boss, and about 300 more people out of the doomed 
building.

                        But she wasn't through yet, she knew 
there were
 others who were trapped. So, highly against James' wishes she 
ran back in
 the building.

                        On her second run, she saved 392 lives. 
Again she
 went back in. During this run, the building collapses.

                        James hears about this and falls on his 
knees into
 tears.

                        Against all known odds, Daisy makes it 
out alive,
 but this time she is carried by a firefighter. "She led us right 
to the
 people, before she got injured" the fireman explained.

                        Her final run saved another 273 lives. 
She suffered
 acute smoke inhalation, severe burns on all four paws, and a 
broken leg,
 but
 she saved 967 lives. Daisy is the first civilian Canine to win 
the Medal
 of
 Honor of New York City.





            I hope you enjoyed this story. I thought it was 
terrific.

            Pass it on to all animal lovers ... Remember love is 
to be
 shared to be multiplied..
