During an
early morning response, to a house-fire in Santa Rosa de Temuco,
Chile ,
firefighters
witnessed the unbelievable. A mother dog risked her life to save
her
puppies from
the fire surrounding the burning house, which started because
of
a car
bomb.
The mother
dog, Amanda, raced back and forth between the house,
putting
her 10 day
old puppies in the safest place she could find - a fire
truck!
She didn't
stop racing back into the fire until all of her puppies were
safely away
from the
fire.
After
rescuing all of her pups from the blaze, Amanda sat down next to
them,
protecting
them with her body. Onlookers called an emergency
veterinary
service, and
she and her pups were rushed to the hospital. Aside from
one
puppy being
treated for serious burns, the entire family are alive and
well
- thanks to
the bravery of Amanda!
Not a lot of dogs would have done that. The coolest dog I ever met was one who woke up his family when the smoke detector failed and there was a fire. His name was Theo. Everyone was fine. The cynical could say that the dog was just saving his own skin but I prefer to give him more credit. I miss Theo.
