“The difference between a hero and a coward is one step sideways”- Gene Hackman
The photograph above? It’s a drop dead gorgeous red-head and her hero. This red Doberman Pinscher is kissing the exhausted fireman who just saved her life.
He had just saved her from a fire, rescuing her by carrying her out of her burning house and into her front yard, while continuing to fight the fire. Apparently, the firefighter was afraid of her at first, because he had never been around a Doberman before. He threw his fear aside, however, and saved her. When the fire was finally out, he sat down to catch his breath.
A photographer from the Charlotte, North Carolina newspaper, “The Observer,” noticed the rescued Doberman Pinscher in the distance looking at her fireman. As the photographer watched, she began to walk straight toward the fireman. The photographer wondered what she had in mind. As he raised his camera, she came up to the tired fireman who had saved her life and kissed him, just as the (very talented) photographer snapped this photograph.
Oh, one more thing, she was pregnant.

So he saved her life and that of her babies.A lovely story with a great ending,wouldn’t we like to think he adopted one of her pups after they were born?
I’d love to think that he did just that! How beautiful her babies must have been – she is simply gorgeous. – Joi
Courage doesn’t always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, “I will try again tomorrow.” ~
