This is Hex, a very lucky little puppy.

Last October, when Hex was just a few months old, she was in a house fire that nearly took her life. When first responders from the Asheville Fire Department in North Carolina, found out she was trapped inside they rushed to her aid, giving her oxygen to bring her back from the brink of death.

Hex spent the next few months being treated for the sever burns she had suffered, and it was clear to staff at the Asheville Humane Society, and the Animal Hospital of North Asheville (AHNA), that this puppy is a fighter.

Hex was able to fully recover from her injuries thanks to the wonderful care she received, but no one could ever forget the first responders who saved her life, and the debt they were owed.

Earlier this month, Hex was visited by the firefighters who saved her in a ceremony honoring their heroism. Below is a video of the touching moment.
