Firefighters Successfully Resuscitate Unconscious Dog Who Was Overcome by Smoke Inhalation

When a fire broke out in Crystal Lamirande‘s Santa Monica, California apartment, no one was home except for a beloved Bichon Frise/Shih Tzu mix named Nalu who was overcome by the smoke. Once alerted to Nalu’s presence in the home, firefighter Andrew Klein of the Santa Monica Fire Department ran back into the burning building and pulled the unconscious dog from the toxic environment. Once outside, Klein and another firefighter worked diligently for at least 20 minutes before Nalu was successfully revived. Photographer Billy Fernando captured this amazing scene through video and photos.
