Brave dog risks his life in house fire to save his feline friend
Fire is a destructive force. If not put out quickly, it can sweep through an area destroying everything in its path. And while a human might brave a fire’s destructive force to save a life. What about a dog. One dog risked his life to save a little kitten, and the internet was abuzz with appreciation.
A massive explosion causes a house fire in Donetsk, Ukraine
After a massive explosion at a defense industry company in Donetsk, Ukraine, residents were forced to evacuate the area. Felt more than three miles away, the flames from the fire caused by the explosion quickly spread from building to building in the immediate area.
A dog runs back into a burning house
Residents moved swiftly to clear their homes of their children and pets as they evacuated. Within the chaos, one dog was about to prove his loyalty to his friend. As the dog’s owner watched, the dog ran back into his burning house. Horrified, the dog owner was sure that his pet was going to die in the home, which by now was engulfed in flames.
The dog emerges with a kitten in his mouth
As the dog owner sat there wondering why his dog would be crazy enough to run into a burning home, the dog emerged from the smoke. In his mouth was the family’s kitten. The dog had run back into the burning building to save his little, furry friend.
The dog and kitten were close friends
Thinking about it, the dog owner said it was natural for the dog to do what he did. The dog and kitten were the best of friends and the dog was used to carrying the kitten around in his mouth. Before the fire, the dog and kitten played and slept together. The dog only did what was natural for someone he loved so much.
A Bordernese saves children from a house fire
In another story of a dog risking its life to save others, Ben the Bordernese was able to save the lives of his owner’s children from a house fire. Thank goodness, Ben’s owner, Colleen Rauschenberger, had decided to take a chance on him when she was looking for a dog. At first, she did not care much for him from his photos, but after meeting him in person, she quickly fell in love.
When the family had to move into an apartment, their landlord would not let them bring Ben to live with them at first. Eventually, the landlord had a change of heart and Ben was allowed to come to live with Rauschenberger and her family.
This was fortunate as soon after Rauschenberger was out, having left the kids with a babysitter. During the night the house caught on fire. Ben was there to wake up the babysitter who was able to get all of the kids out of the house. If not for Ben, the children probably would have all died.
