The Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Detectors Were Frequently Triggered
Samantha Griffin, a 38-year-old social worker, had recently moved into a new apartment with her niece and Luna, a dog she had rescued from Speedway Animal Rescue just nine months earlier. Though their new home seemed perfect at first, Samantha noticed that the smoke and carbon monoxide detectors were frequently triggering. Assuming the alarms were malfunctioning, they remained unaddressed.
On June 24, Luna's instinctive behavior took on a new urgency. Samantha, who was alone with Luna, began experiencing an unusually severe migraine-a condition she was familiar with but never accompanied by such intense distress from her dog. Instead of being her usual calm self, Luna was frantic and persistent, desperately trying to get Samantha outside.
"Luna was acting in a way I had never seen before," Samantha said. "She scratched at doors, pounced on me, and tried everything she could to get me out of the apartment." Recognizing something was seriously wrong, Samantha followed Luna outside and called for help.
Samantha Alerted the Maintenance Staff
Samantha alerted the maintenance staff, who quickly contacted the local fire department. When responders arrived, they discovered a dangerous carbon monoxide leak in the apartment, reaching deadly levels. Samantha later learned that a bird’s nest had blocked the flue of her building’s gas water heater, causing the perilous buildup of carbon monoxide. The leak had gone unnoticed due to the silent nature of the gas and the malfunctioning detectors. The outcome could have been tragic if not for Luna's divine intervention.

“Luna did save my life that day. If she hadn’t gotten me out, I definitely probably would have fallen asleep and just died,” Samantha said.
This extraordinary event underscores how God uses our pets as life-saving angels. Luna’s intuition and relentless efforts were a clear example of how God's care and protection can come through the simplest and most unexpected forms.
Samantha and Luna Are Now Safe
Samantha and Luna are now safe and well, with Luna having returned to her playful self. Samantha is profoundly grateful for her canine companion, recognizing Luna not just as a pet but as a guardian angel sent to save her life.
Sharing Luna's story, Samantha hopes to inspire others to recognize the remarkable ways God works through our animals and to consider adopting rescue pets. "Dogs are more than just pets; they can be our family," she said.
Luna's actions reminded us how God can use our furry friends to safeguard us in ways we might not even realize. Luna's incredible act of bravery serves as a powerful testament to the good Lord's care that surrounds us, often through the love and loyalty of our four-legged friends.
