Another uplifting post to share! We are always proud and grateful when our firefighters/paramedics are formally recognized for what they do on a daily basis. Save lives. Medics Cord Langthorn and Manoj Sewal were given a "Care of Excellence Award" by Methodist Central.

This week before that fire starting going strong, this little heroic pooch woke his human up with a sense that something was wrong. The pup suffered from smoke inhalation but thanks to some oxygen given by our firefighters he seemed to be doing ok. #doggiehero #puppyoftheday
