2. He's a dog Dad

What else would he do?

4. I would do. She's all I have.

5. I would too

I couldn't just stand by and watch, knowing she was in there.

6. I could only hope to have that kind of blind courage.

Bravo

7. Firefighter's worsy nightmare

is having a civilian run into a fire like that for any reason. At least both the guy and the dog got out, although they're probably both injured.

It could very easily have turned into a very sad story on the evening news.

8. Yep.

A former neighbor of mine died that way, along with the dogs he couldn’t save. Sad story.

10. Most people killed by sleeper waves were trying to save their dog

The dogs usually make it back to shore after getting washed away, but the owners trying to rescue them don't make it.

11. Bummer. But understandable.

Although it’s objectively foolish, who can blame somebody for trying to save their dog? The dog would surely try to save them if it could.
