Dog Rescues Kittens From Burning House

THIS will be the cutest video you may see today.  It involves a dog named Leo who stayed put at a fire in Melbourne, Australia, to stand guard over four little kittens in a box.  Poor Leo had to have his heart massaged and have oxygen resucitation as he keeled over in the smoke.  All are well.  All together now:  "Aaaaaaaaaahhhhh!"    Bless.

 

Firefighters found Leo guarding the kittens which were in a cardboard box in one of the bedrooms.

When the fire broke out inside the house, the family of four plus their other dog managed to escape.

However Leo paid the price for his bravery. He succumbed to the smoke and heat.

Firefighters rushed the dog to safety and revived the unconscious Leo with a heart massage and oxygen.
