When Safira, a beloved pup of Ituporanga in Brazil, suddenly disappeared from her home one day, her dad was overwhelmed by fear and desperation. He searched far and wide for days, but no trace of his sweet pup could be found.
On the third day, he heard her bark for help and was finally able to locate her. However, his struggles had only just begun.
Accidentally tumbling over a two-hundred-foot cliff, Safira found herself stranded on a meager, foliage-filled ledge nearly eighty feet below. She was only one mile away from her home.
The ledge had come to the pup’s rescue, yet now she was confined on it with no method of escape.
As Safira’s owner, he was filled with dread for her well-being and had no idea what to do. She’d been stranded without food or water for three days, leaving him powerless as to how he could reach her on the ledge and safely bring her down.
Out of desperation, he contacted the firefighters in a last-ditch effort to save his dog even though he was uncertain whether they would allocate their time and resources to the mission.
Fear not, for the brave firefighters of the Ituporanga Military Fire Department arrived promptly to save this poor pup’s life. Without hesitation, they leaped into action and used all their knowledge and resources to give him a fighting chance.
The heroic mission required the courageous rescuers to rappel down a daunting cliffside, but when they finally reached the frightened pup and set her free from danger, it was evident that all their efforts had been worthwhile.
Although frail from her experience, Safira was overcome with joy and appreciation when she saw her lifesavers. She kept showering them with kisses of gratitude as if she could not express how thankful she truly felt.
When speaking to The Dodo, Luis Fernando – one of the rescuers – affirmed that it was not their first time rescuing a pup and exclaimed “It is always worth our time!”.
The pet dad of Safira was immensely grateful to the fire department for rescuing his beloved pup and is thrilled that she is now back at home.
The heroes that brought her back to a place of safety, health, and joy will remain forever in her heart. She is now happy, and healthy and has been granted the gift of life thanks to them.
