While they were working to extinguish the fire, the firefighters made a very unexpected discovery.
A surprising encounter
The firefighters stumbled upon a lost dog.
The poor pooch was all alone, in an area miles from any houses. He was very frightened and clearly disorientated.
It turned out the dog had been lost for several days and was being actively searched for by his family.
Thanks to his collar and the up-to-date information on it, the firefighters were able to easily contact the pooch's family to let them know they had found him safe and sound.
Safe and sound
The dog was a little stressed but found comfort in the arms of the firefighter who rescued him. The pooch didn't leave his side for the entire journey.
The firefighters were able to fly the dog back to his family by helicopter.
He has since been reunited with his home and family and is now resting after his misadventure, which thankfully had a very happy ending!
