The {Orange County (California) Register} reported a story that a
couple claimed a $ 28.00 bill for 900- calls was caused by their dog.
The dog had been trained to dial 911 in case the smoke alarm went off
in their absence. They came home one day to find the phone off the
hook with the dog nearby. They paid no particular notice of the
incident until the bill came. The phone company refused to bite :-) on
the story. The couple said they would take the charges out of the
cocker spaniel's monthly $20.00 allowance.
