People who would love their companions and would do anything to save them = crazy. Gotcha.
i think he tells them theres a dog in there before he runs in.
This is the only viable answer. I can understand this point of view. I just don't see it as heroic. More as someone panicking in a really bad situation and getting lucky.
While I agree it was irresponsible considering his kids... I can't say I wouldn't do the same for my dog.
Their point is the kids would be more fucked with the loss of their father doing something reckless. This had a good outcome and it's fantastic he saved his dog, but had he not he left 3 kids behind fatherless building on the thought that he left them behind to save their dog and failed. Mix that in with the potential chance with the fire fighters rushing in if enough time passed multiple lives could have been lost.
And it looks like they just stand there looking at each other as he does.
Because "healthy attachment" it totally defined by being okay with letting a pet burn to death.
What a dumb thing to say.
Yeah they seemed pretty confused on what to do about things tbh after he rushed in
They may have thought it was too risky to save a dog (but not a child)
I didn't realize etcetera was just for cheerleading purposes. In all seriousness, if you're looking for nothing but people repeating stuff such as "good doggo" about a thousand times, go hang out on r/aww. I'm not saying that to be snarky, but if we're seriously not supposed to discuss an article beyond saying how great it is, some sort of disclaimer would be appreciated.
If you suspect some sort of animal abuse, search somewhere else I think. He's owned the dog for 2 months, I can imagine him being leashed 'out of fear he'd run away. With the leash on, the dog hid unter the toilet, because it was the only place not on fire.
Whos a good doggo
you're a good doggo
Great thread! Pretty sure I'd do the same for my kitties.
edit: Their gofundme seems to be a success too! All around feelgood story.
Nah, you're right. If the father had died doing this, there'd be a lot of people going the other way and agreeing with you.
It ended up being a heartwarming story, but so many times life doesn't turn out like the movies.
Ah yeah this makes sense was a pretty fucked scenario for them then.
I honestly don't know what I'd do at that moment. I can say right now with certainty that I'd do the same as that man, but when the time comes I could just get too scared. I don't want a painful dead, which I imagine burning to death probably is.
Something I highly recommend everyone with pets do is get a sticker like this to put on your window. We have one on our backdoor and window by front door:
Having never been in this situation, I for one, again with no experience, know I would've reacted with a level-head and a clear mind.
Guy did a really dangerous thing to save a loved one. I can't blame him but he really really took his life into his own hands there.

I'm not going to say it's pleasant, but usually you pass out from smoke inhalation before the flames get you. I know if I ever get stuck in a no win fire situation, I'll be breathing deep.
Damn, glad they both came out ok. I agree with others though, very foolish! I would be devastated if my husband died trying to save our dog.
I'm really, really glad both he and the dog are okay. I've actually thought about what I'd do about my pets in a fire, because my family has a dog who goes to hide under the bed when the fire alarm goes off. I'd do what I could if I were still in the house and could make it to them, but I wouldn't risk my life like this. I love my pets dearly, but I won't give up my life for them.
"He went in there for that dog"
As someone who was raised with dogs, I can relate and would have done the same for my sweet Giant Schnauzer. Dogs are called best friends for a reason.

Poster has every right to discuss the article at hand. I think they're actually being super reasonable to the attacks from multiple members.
Fire department should go in upon being informed of a dog in the house.
But I'm happy the dog lives. Good owner.

Even if what he did seemed irrational, because of it it got people to notice and donate.
My wife and I would die in the blaze trying to save our cats. I don't care what anyone else thinks. Pets can be loved by people that much.
His dog is his family. I completely understand that, my dog was too. We raise them from a small puppy in many cases and they rely on us in much the same way a child does. He reacted in the moment. I likely would have done the same. Yes he was a parent and had he died it would have been a stupid move, but, he didn't. All I can do is shake my head at the callous people in this thread that would let their dog burn alive, because "it's just a dog" basically. My ignore list at least got some work.
Good man. Would've done the same.
With each posts of yours I read I can feel the light, life, joy, warmth and compassion being suck out of this moment.
Fucking hell
