Sheriff’s Office Discovers Small Dog with Burn Injuries in Aftermath of Fire

The raging wildfires in northern California have claimed numerous lives as they continue to spread and wreak havoc in their path.

In the midst of the destruction, the Butte County Sheriff’s Office stumbled upon a surprising discovery. While searching through the debris of fire-damaged properties, they were startled to see a puppy peeking out from the rubble. Without hesitation, they reached out and rescued the little pup, who had suffered some minor burns. Rushing him to Animal Control, he underwent a thorough examination. Sadly, the property owner, who had several dogs, was unable to find all of them before needing to evacuate to escape the wildfires. It was a close call, but thanks to the quick actions of the deputies, this furry friend was saved from potential danger.

The brave dog made it through the fire and was overjoyed to be greeted by his saviors. They gave him nourishment, hydration, and plenty of affection upon finding him. Not knowing who his true owner was, the Sheriff’s Office decided to call him Trooper. Currently, at least 35 casualties have been reported, and over four million acres of land have been ravaged by the wildfires raging through California, Oregon, and Washington State.

The Butte Region Sheriff’s Office took to Facebook to deliver some positive news amidst the difficult days our region has been facing. They shared heartwarming images of the puppy that was rescued, spreading a glimmer of hope during these trying times. Massive thanks to everyone involved in saving this little pup!
