Qld: Dog saves couple from housefire

A barking pet dog has earned his keep by waking a man and a woman in time for them
to escape a house fire north of Brisbane.

The blaze erupted in the house in Grant Street at Redcliffe just before one this morning
(AEST).. while a 44-year-old man and a 32-year-old woman were asleep inside.

The man's been treated in Redcliffe Hospital .. and police say the fire isn't suspicious.
