Clearwater resident Brian Rogers went to the fire station on Wednesday November 19 to thank the firefighters of the Clearwater Fire Department to personally thank them for saving his dog Bandit who was inside of a burning home on the morning of Sunday November 2 while Brian was away from his home. The firefighters entered the smoke-filled room of the home when they saw Bandit knocked out inside of the bedroom. The firefighters took Bandit outside of Brian's home where Bandit was given oxygen and taken by the police to an animal hospital to be taken care of by a veterinarian. Brian and Bandit personally thanked the firefighters for saving the life of his pet with a picture of Bandit engraved on a piece of wood. Link is msn.com/en-us/news/wor...

How nice. Firefighters need all the good vibes they can get from their communities.
