On June 27, 2014, two German Shepherds almost lost their lives when they got trapped inside a burning building in Plantacion Fiscal, San Antonio, Chile. When fire fighters arrived, all human residents had escaped the blaze, but their pets, including two cats, and the German Shepherds Apolo and Princesa remained trapped inside.
The heroic first responders were able to locate the dogs and pull them to safety, however, by the time they were reached, they were unconscious as they had inhaled large amounts of smoke.
“One of the dogs was almost dead and that is why we did mouth-to-mouth,” Espinoza told Soy Chile. “I would do the same thing in any other occasion because that is what we are trained for, [to save lives.]”
Unfortunately, the cats could not be located and are believed to have perished in the fire. We are very sorry for their loss 🙁
The owners of the pets hope to be reunited with their beloved canines soon.
