“I heard like, a loud bang and I was like, ‘what’s going on?’ I heard Sasha crying and she kept jumping at the door. As soon as I got to the door, she runs in and starts barking,” Latana said, according to Kare 11

Found the pit bull in the baby’s bedroom

When she opened the door to let Sasha in she ran to Masailah’s room. Then she noticed black smoke coming from the ceiling, a fire that was spreading from their neighbor’s house to theirs.

Mom Latana quickly rushed to her baby’s room and found Sasha grabbing Masailah by the diaper and pulling her to safety.

The family credits Sasha’s early warning barks for keeping them safe.
