Puppy falls unconscious in house fire; compassionate fire fighters don't give up until he's revived

The puppy, named Buster, fell unconscious after inhaling smoke in a house fire.

The black Labrador pup called Buster, fell unconscious after inhaling smoke in a kitchen fire in South Birmingham, England.

The blaze was reported on Monday morning from a house in Kings Heath, Birmingham, reported ITV. Two fire fighters were deployed to rescue the dog from the kitchen.

A group of fire fighters from the Billesley Fire Department phenomenally rescued Buster in half an hour using their latest animal respiratory equipment.

Video footage released by the Billesley Fire Department showed firemen trying to revive the pup using a special oxygen mask while one of them lovingly comforted the dog. However Buster struggled to breathe.

Buster is seen blinking tiredly as if going in and out of consciousness. However much to everyone's relief, a subsequent video posted on Twitter shows the little pup wake up and gives a confused glance to the people who just saved his life and affectionately lick them. In return, he gets lots of pats for being so brave.

The department tweeted pictures of the little Labrador looking healthy and adorable wrapped in a blanket.

"Buster with his rescuers, half an hour later, looking a lot healthier. A very lucky dog. Good job!" the tweet said.
