Heroic firefighter rescue fainted Husky stuck on 15th floor of burning building

Unlike hero movies, not everyone who possesses power or flies in the sky can be a hero.

Some people are still known as real-life heroes thanks to their bravery. One of them is the firefighters.

Firefighters are real-life heroes. They always try their best, using their courage to keep people and animals safe in all dangerous situations.

The husky dog was fainted on the 15th floor of a fiercely burning building

Recently, Virginia Beach firefighters had to handle a fire at a high-rise apartment building when flames broke out from the 15th floor and quickly spread through the surrounding area.

The huge fire caused people to panic, resulting in them to quickly leave their homes and flee to safety. Meanwhile, a dog who was home alone in an apartment on the 15th floor fainted and could not escape promptly.

Cody Brandon, one of the firefighters at the scene said: "The fire was so large, climbing all the stairs was a challenge that they don't often encounter in normal house fires."

Even so, they still daring went deep inside the smoke to search for trapped people.

Suddenly, they discovered the Siberian husky dog was unconscious on the 15th floor, the highest floor of the building, and its owner was not there.

The dog rescue began, but they didn't know that carrying that dog was not as easy as they initially thought.

Luckily the Husky dog did not suffer any further injuries at that time, but it could not breathe normally, so firefighters needed to quickly get it out of the fire.

Remarkably, the Husky dog named Igor, weighing up to 100 pounds, made it difficult to transport him down all the rescue stairs.

DePalma even joked, "I wished it was a little Chihuahua."

Firefighters successfully rescued the Husky from the burning building.

Despite the difficulties, firefighters succeeded in removing Igor from the fire without any further injuries.

After escaping the fire, animal control officers quickly used a pet oxygen mask to help him breathe normally after inhaling large amounts of smoke.

Igor woke up and became responsive soon after and was taken to Bay Beach Veterinary Hospital for further treatment.

Brenon, a firefighter, breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "I'm glad he's safe now. That's why I became a firefighter, to save all the people and animals out of the fire and see them recover in the best possible way."
