Best article all month❤️🙏. Save the pets.
Weren't there additional pets?
i love you atina
This made me tear up . im so glad You guys was reunited.
Glad the family is OK and reunited with their dog. So sad their house is gone.
I searched specifically to find out if this dog was reunited with the family – thank you.
POOR FUR BABY HOPEFULLY HE HAS A SAFE LOVING FOREVER HOME
What a blessing! So glad she made it!
I couldnt have left my pets period. If they don’t go I don’t go. They are so lucky she survived and they got her back. No mention of the other pets. So sad they lost everything but Athena is a bright light in the darkness.
Please help Israel first…
Why didn't they take the dog when they left with the kids 😭 Glad she was found safe tho 🙏🏻
How do you leave without your pets? Makes you question how much these pets meant. Idc if it was an emergency you pile the car up I know there was space for pets sit on three laps at least.
Man shedding tears here. Awesome story. Terrific people all around.
Dogs are amazing
God bless all involved in this happy ending
Can i just thank you alot of people wont rescue a pit or her breed but thank god for good people
