Guided to Safety on September 11th
His guide dog led him from the crumbling towers. She also led him to a new life.
by Michael Hingson
guideposts.org

Michael Hingson was on the 78th floor of the North Tower of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. He says the first indication that something was wrong was the sound of a muffled explosion. Then the building began to tilt, and he felt the floor drop like an elevator. But Michael Hingson didn’t panic because his guide dog, Roselle, was calm.

Michael Hingson’s book is Thunder Dog.

Salty and Roselle

Salty and Roselle were two guide dogs who were with their owners in the World Trade Center during the September 11 attacks in New York City. They each guided their owners out of the burning towers before they collapsed, feats which were later recognized when they were awarded the Dickin Medal by the British charity the People's Dispensary for Sick Animals. [1] Roselle went on to be posthumously named American Hero Dog of the Year 2011 by American Humane, and has a book written about her.
