A rescue dog is being hailed as a hero after saving his Iowa family from a fire. Capone's owner, mother-of-nine Angela Fullmer, 32, was trying to get some much-needed sleep when the miniature pinscher-Chihuahua mix started barking incessantly. When the little dog wouldn't stop, Fullmer knew something was up and quickly realized her kitchen was on fire. Within minutes, she managed to get all of her children out of the house — with Capone trailing behind. "I'm glad we found him on the highway," Fullmer said. "It was supposed to happen."
