White Dog
and The White Dog Army
Wonderful
World Wednesday
White Dog
and the entire White Dog Army have an incredible amount of respect and
gratitude for First Responders like police, fire fighters, and EMTs. These
amazing men and women regularly put their personal safety aside to intervene in
crises that would leave members of their community hurting and at a loss.
Because of their routine selfless bravery our world is more secure, safer, and
filled with the comfort of knowing that help is within reach.
In the eyes
of the WDA, First Responders are heroes who deserve recognition for what they
do. In huge catastrophes such as tornadoes or forest fires, we can all see
their incredible efforts in the media coverage such disasters attract. But every day across the country, there are smaller,
less noticed moments where a First Responder goes above and beyond to make the world more wonderful in his community.
We would
like to share the story of one such local hero, a New Jersey policeman who put
himself at risk to save the residents of a local pet store…
Officer Rafael Burgos rescued animals from the Pet Center in Franklin, N.J.
when a fire broke out in the building.

A New Jersey
police officer is recovering from smoke inhalation after rescuing animals from
a pet shop fire, officials say.
The fire at Pet Center on State Highway 23
in Franklin, N.J. was reported at about 9 a.m. Tuesday, and officers Rafael
Burgos and Jeffrey Korger were among the first responders on the scene,
according to the Franklin Borough Police Department.
Burgos rescued all the pets inside the
building as other officers evacuated nearby businesses, police said.
Firefighters were able to put out the fire,
and investigators say the blaze appears to be related to an electrical
issue.
Burgos is receiving medical attention for
smoke inhalation, police said. No one else was injured.
A local veterinary hospital is helping to
temporarily care for the displaced pets.
