This firefighter saved this dog from her burning home. 

He carried her out of the house and into her front yard,

then he returned to fight the fire. 



When he finally got done putting the fire out,  

 he sat down to catch his breath and rest.



A photographer noticed the dog in the yard watching the fireman.  

There were other firemen on the scene that day,

but she was watching him. 



He saw her walk straight toward the man 

and wondered what she was going to do.



As he raised his camera,  

 she came up to the tired man who had saved her life  

 and kissed him just as the photographer snapped this photograph.   



  And people say animals are dumb.
