Default A great dog story . . .

This photograph shows a red Doberman kissing an exhausted fireman. He had just saved her from a fire in her house, rescuing her by carrying her out of the house into her front yard, while he continued to fight the fire. She is pregnant. The firefighter was afraid of her at first, because he had never been around a Doberman before. When he finally got done putting the fire out, he sat down to catch his breath and rest. A photographer from the Charlotte, North Carolina newspaper, "The Observer," noticed this red Doberman in the distance looking at the fireman. He saw her walking straight toward the fireman and wondered what she was going to do. As he raised his camera, she came up to the tired man who had saved her life and the lives of her babies, and kissed him, when the photographer snapped this photograph.

A picture is worth a thousand words. Justifiably so for the dogs sake. There's a feeling of gratitude when this happens, not only from an animal but with a human. It's humbling when someone comes up to you and says "thank you for saving my life."

Dobies are a breed that get a bad rap, most are big puppies at heart but a few get mistreated and give the rest a bad rep. My granma had a Dobie with his ears and tail intact and was a big puppy when I went away to the Air Force in 1980, I came back after being gone 6 months and the dog recognized me right away and slobbered all over me. Great Pic of the red dobie
