Firefighters Saved These Pups From A Storm Sewer – Then Suddenly Realized They Weren’t Dogs 
After Colorado firefighters spent 20 minutes pulling eight tiny beings from a storm sewer, they believed that they’d saved a litter of Labradors. However, little did they know that the animals that they’d rescued were not your average pets. Instead, they were something much more unusual.
As part of its work, the Colorado Springs Fire Department tries to keep people in its community safe from harm. In addition to fighting fires, the department also prevents blazes by fitting smoke alarms in people’s houses.
But while tending to these tasks is pretty much standard for firefighters, sometimes crews have to deal with more unexpected duties. And these include rescuing various animals. A quick scroll through the department’s Facebook page shows that the organization has saved all manner of creatures from various scrapes.
For instance, in 2016 one squad saved a dog, a turtle, two cats and seven goldfish from an apartment fire. Meanwhile, in December 2017 the department assisted in the dramatic rescue of an injured dog from a manhole.
And in March 2018 one of the department’s crews attended to a similar incident. It was then that they became aware of eight tiny animals in need of assistance. So, firefighters rushed to help them.
As a far as the squad knew, a litter of puppies had fallen down a storm drain. Their mom was nowhere to be seen. And with no way of pulling themselves out of the hole, it seemed that the animals would likely perish without intervention.
Thankfully, though, Colorado Springs firefighters were on their way. In video footage of their rescue effort, one crew member bends down on his knees and carefully lifts each puppy out. One by one, he lays them on a white cloth before going back for the next.
As the firefighter places one pup down, his colleague enquires, “How many is that? Nine?” The man on his knees proceeds to count the balls of black fur before confirming that there are in fact eight in total. Eight tiny animals that it seemed might have perished if it hadn’t been for the department’s good work.

Have A GOOD DAY
