INCREDIBLE PHOTOS OF A HEROIC MOTHER DOG
CARRYING HER TEN-DAY-OLD PUPPIES
FROM A BLAZING HOME TO SAFETY IN
AUGUST 2012
The blaze broke out at a home in Santa Rosa de Temuco,
Chile, after a car bomb went off.
The mother dog - a German Shepherd mix called Amanda,
risked her life to pick up the puppies in her mouth
and carried them from the burning house to the
safety of the fire truck.
She ran between the house and truck over and over again
until all puppies were safe. After rescuing all of her pups
from the blaze, Amanda sat down next to them, protecting them
with her body as the firefighters fought the blaze.
Amanda and her puppies were then taken to a vet where one
puppy called Amparo, who had suffered severe burns, died.
The vet, Felipe Lara, told Soy Chile that Amanda had defended
her puppies when they tried to take them away from her to
care for them. Eventually she let them check over her pups but
she wanted to stay with ailing Amparo and did not want to let
her from her sight.
The other four puppies were doing well.
