Firefighters are responsible for putting out fires, and making sure everyone is safe, yet these incredible firefighters from the Henrico County Division of Fire unit in Virginia went above and beyond the call of duty when they rescued three pups who were struggling to breathe from a fire.
When these firefighters were responding to a small fire in a garage, they quickly put the fire out before noticing a small puppy in a pen next to the garage door, and two other small puppies trying to find a way to escape.
The first responders immediately noticed that the three puppies were struggling to breathe after inhaling so much smoke, and set up special oxygen masks.
Yet the puppies were still struggling on their own even with the oxygen masks, and the Chief decided to drive them directly to an emergency center to get checked out. In a post to their Facebook page, the fire department explained: “Upon arrival all three puppies were given emergency treatment and their condition improved.”
