Evansville Firemen Give Dog Oxygen to Save its Life
There some skills they don't teach you in First Responder class. I know, because I was certified many years ago. We practiced administrating oxygen on patients, but never a dog. These Evansville firefighters are so dedicated to serving the community that they made sure that Zahara was doing good before they left the scene.
Kelly Yarde took her to Evansville Animal Care and Control, just for the time being. Her owner is in the hospital and they couldn't leave her in the fire-destroyed home.
Who know what adventures await the 14 new recruits that just joined the department. If this has inspired you to become a fire fighter, and make a difference in your community, you could be in luck. The City of Evansville will open up the application process for the fire department March 1 - April30, 2021.
