UPDATE: On Tuesday, with his terminally ill dog's suffering too much for him to bear, Scott Seymore had his heroic dog Brittney euthanized by his veterinarian in Grand Rapids, Mich. Keep reading to find out what made Brittney such a hero.
Scott Seymore has his bulldog, Brittney, to thank for his life. Brittney has Seymore to thank for extending hers.
Two weeks ago, Seymore, who lives in Grand Rapids, Mich., learned that his 9-year-old American bulldog has several cancerous tumors. Seymore's veterinarian didn't think Brittney would survive surgery and Seyore thought chemotherapy would be too hard on her.
Seymore chose medication to ease Brittney's pain instead of putting her down. The vet expected Brittney to die within a few weeks.
Early Saturday, a barking Brittney woke Seymore in time for both of them to escape from Seymour's burning house. Firefighters told The Grand Rapids Press the house might be a total loss.
Just like "It's a Wonderful Life," it's amazing to see how one life - or, in this case, one humane decision - can affect so many other lives.
Godspeed, Brittney. May your owner truly appreciate what you gave him.

She did what she was put here on Earth to do - to save her human's life......when they meet again at the Rainbow Bridge she will be whole again and not in pain........
"And on Judgement day, if I take the way that leads where the righteous meet.
If my dog is barred by the Heavenly guard, we'll both of us brave the heat." from the writings of W. Dayton Wegefarth c1915
There is no doubt, that pets are the best friends of humans, and they fully take care of their owners. This is a very good example of this trusted relationship.
