Chihuahua finds 2 girls lost in Georgia forest

NEWNAN, Ga. - A Chihuahua is being hailed as a hero after authorities
say it sniffed out two girls who were lost in a Georgia forest.



 The girls, ages 5 and 8, disappeared Monday for a couple of hours when
they were walking on trails near their neighborhood about 30 miles
southwest of Atlanta.
As police and firefighters began to search for the girls, neighbor
Carvin Young grabbed his 3-year-old Chihuahua, Bell, and joined the search.



The children play with Bell almost every day, and the dog is very familiar with them. Bell picked up the girls' scent and began running until she reached them.
