Brave mother

This is a lovely story from August 2012.

A fire broke out in a building in Santa Rosa de Temuco, Chile. A German Shepherd cross called Amanda risked her life to rescue her 10-day-old puppies. She ran between the burning house and the fire 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.





Unfortunately, one of the puppies suffered very severe burns and died later that day. The others survived and were reunited with Amanda after treatment.
