“Strike” the wonder  puppy did good! So proud! angel

]  

Other night he was extra rambunctious, wouldn’t let up, kept chomping on my arm, trying to
Drag me towards the door. Said to his mom, he’s trying to tell me something, think he needs
OUT? She let him out & he went nuts digging madly at the frozen ground  Roll Eyes
Came in & LuLu said “I smell gas!” & called Gas Co.
Man came up & without even using his sniffer meter said: “ You’ve got a gas leak!” My house is
Nearly All Electric except furnace  Shocked

Emergency work crews spent 4 hours digging where Strike did! Main gas feed needed replacing

Good Boy, Strike!!!

Yes, he is thank you!   cooldude

Just dawned on me the irony of this story & dog’s name…
He became Strike when he was rescued from the gas chamber  angel
Good for us, he’s got an aversion to gas!!!

Wow!  That’s an awesome story.  Strike definitely earned himself a steak dinner. It sounds like all of you are lucky. I’m glad you paid attention to him and that all turned out well.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
