says:I am a firefighter and those air packs, called SCBA’s (self-contained breathing apparatus) have air bottles that are filled with compressed, purified air, NOT Oxygen!! What the firefighter in the video did was turn up the air flow through the mask so the dogs got a good dose of air. It was very fortunate for the home owner thee pups were not in the house any longer than they were. )One more thing to note – We are taught to rescue animals, if possible, from dwellings provided we are able to get to them without endangering our own lives. Again, it was a good thing these dogs seemed to be near enough to an means of egress where they could be quickly found.
OMG! What a wonderful man you are!

says:so proud that the firefighters cared & helped the dogs to live. I love stories when people care about others & animals. My husband used to be on a volunteer fire dept & we love animals & volunteer at a no kill shelter. A few years ago our dept saved a dog from the icy river & I wrote an article for the newspaper thanking them for saving the dog. It was also on our local tv news. Thank you from Nancy in Illinois
