(KFVS/Gray News) — An 8-week-old puppy rescued from a car fire Sunday night is recovering at a Missouri animal shelter after receiving lifesaving care from firefighters.
After the fire was extinguished, the crew found a puppy hiding in the back seat, still alive.
Firefighters believe the burning vehicle had been abandoned with the puppy inside.
With animal control unavailable Sunday night, firefighters took the puppy back to the station and cared for him overnight.
But again, he’s just a puppy, so potty training will be involved,” said Jenn Farmer, executive director of SEMO Pets.
