Here’s a remarkable story from Wisconsin that highlights both the dangers of carbon monoxide and the incredible loyalty of a dog. Last Month, Nicole Siekert felt very tired in her home, so she decided to take a nap. But for some reason, Abby, the family dog, wouldn’t let her sleep:
Feeling lethargic and foggy, Siekert decided to lie down after her daughters left for school.
