When a house fire in Temuco, Chile destroyed part of their home, this mother dog did not hesitate to help her 10-day-old puppies. Not only did she rescue them from the burning building, but she carried them all the way to the safety of a nearby fire truck.
Sadly, one of her puppies, named Amparo, died from severe burns following the fire. Still, the momma herself and all of the other puppies are in stable condition, and recovering. At the time these photos were posted, the dogs’ human companion was still in the hospital for burn treatment, but he should be home soon to give them lots of extra love.

Great story. The more I see of people the more I prefer my dogs.
Mother's instinct ... applies to both humans and animals.
Oh what a lesson to some people who thinks animals do not think, feel etc. theyre just like human or better than some humans, but with the dference that they cannot talk, TOO BAD !!!! God Bless that wonderful mom and their puppies, oh my so tender photos, thanks for sharing
