Another story: Never Give Up Your Dreams
During an early morning response to a house fire, firefighters were amazed … a mother dog risked her life to save her puppies from the fire surrounding her and the puppies in the burning house. She certainly could reflect character.
The mother dog, Amanda, raced back and forth to the house, putting her 10-day old puppies in the safest place she could find – a fire truck!
An onlooker photographed it with his cell phone after she already had a few in one of the truck’s equipment compartments. She didn’t stop racing back into the smoke and fire until all of her puppies were safely away from the fire. The firemen on the scene could not believe their eyes. Most people have never seen a dog this smart or this brave!
Bringing each one out, six trips into the fire and no one could stop her. All the fireman could do was to try to keep a little water spray on her to keep from singing as she kept making trips running through the open door.
You may be able to see some of the singed hair on her back end, forehead, and lower legs.

After rescuing all of her pups from the blaze, she sat down next to them to nurse, protecting them with her body. It does reflect character we all aspire to!
Aside from one puppy being treated for serious burns, the entire family is alive and well!
