Rottweiler mom and 4 pups rescued after being trapped for days following wildfire

A family of five dogs — a mother and her four puppies — were finally rescued after days spent trapped in a car as residents fled a massive wildfire.

Last week, Northern California was hit with a massive, devastating Park Fire, the result of suspected arson. Spreading across more than 380,000 acres, it is the fifth-largest wildfire in California history.

Thousands of residents across four counties were forced to evacuate. One Butte County resident was fleeing a remote area when their truck became disabled and had no choice but to leave the truck behind — along with their dogs: two adult rottweilers and their four puppies.

Because of the wildfires, no one could reach the dogs and they were trapped in the truck for days. But when it was finally safe, two members of the Butte County Sheriff’s Office Search and Rescue made it their mission to get the dogs.
