Foster dog saves sleeping family of 5 from houseboat fire

PORTSMOUTH, Va. – A Virginia family of five is calling their foster dog a hero for saving them from a marina fire that destroyed multiple boats, including their houseboat.

Christopher Cushna, Shiela Janes and their children took in a Great Pyrenees named Moose, or Moosie, as part of the Portsmouth Humane Society’s program “Paws Around Portsmouth.” The program pairs community members with a shelter dog for a “field trip” that can last a few hours or a few days.

The family had been fostering Moose for less than two days when the dog saved their lives.
