Therapy Dogs Provide Comfort to California Firefighters

The Dixie Fire, which is still raging as of 1:14 am on the 9th of August 2021, has kept the firefighters in the area very busy and stressed. In the struggle to put out the biggest fire in California’s history, Lutheran Church Charities K-9 Comfort Dog Ministry have brought their dogs to comfort the firefighters through hugs and smiles.

California firefighter Melissa Bell said, “When you have them here, you’re able to pet them and show the love. It’s just a really special connection. And when people are out on the fire line for a long period of time, it’s long and draining days so it helps boost the morale when we come back and we’re able to pet dogs. It just brings a whole other energy.”

Our salute goes to the Lutheran Church Charities for this unselfish act of helping firefighters put out one of the greatest threats to California’s wildlife and environment.
