[quote]A dog feared dead after a gas explosion flattened two homes earlier this week has been found alive.

The blast happened in Cloes Lane, Clacton, on Wednesday, leaving 10 people injured.

A four-year-old border collie called Cayyad had been feared dead beneath the rubble left by the explosion.

But two days after the explosion, she began barking when she picked up the scent of the black Labrador search and rescue dog called Reqs.[/quote]

This actually happened like a mile from my house, apparently a few people are in critical condition, 2 houses are completely destroyed, a few more have to be pulled down, they lost everything, really sad

Did you hear the explosion? I have a mate in Clacton who said he heard it from about a mile away too.

This fuckin dog!

Dogs got some skills.

I bet he buries his owners shit not the other way around, and gives it food and water.

Damn, that's pretty lucky. Imagine if the dog was too scared/paranoid to bark at the search dog's scent, they'd never have found it.

Great. People are injured and houses are destroyed. GOOD THING WE FOUND A DOG!

[FlamingBlizza]

anyone else misread 'Dog' as 'Doug'?

I actually don't understand why this needs to center around a dog.
