FAULKVILLE, GA (WTOC) -
"He was a
three year old blood hound. Sweet. Loving."
Tony Young
called his hound Samson his baby. Early Monday morning, he says Samson woke him
up to alert him to a fire.
"The first
thing that hit my mind was getting Samson and Hercules. I got Hercules out and Samson
went to hide."
Young says Samson
ran under the bed. He busted out a window trying to get to him -- but it was
too late.
Samson was
killed in the blaze.
"I can't
stop visualizing that little baby under the bed wondering why isn't mama and
daddy helping me."
Young lost
everything in the fire except his other dog Hercules.
Now - he'll
have to rebuild his entire life...but he says it will be difficult without Samson.
"I prayed please God let this
baby have a place in heaven. He deserves it."
