Starving Dog Left To Die By Her Owners Becomes Friends With Firefighters, And Now They Hang Out Every Day
When Ashley the pit bull was found starving and cold in an abandoned home, a firehouse in New York agreed to take her in until her rescuers could find her a family. 3 days later, they adopted her.
The New York City Fire Department station, known as Fort Pitt, fell in love with Ashley from the first wag of her tail. A beautiful sand-coloured pit bull, she has truly become part of the team, and even has her own seat in the firetruck. Ashley also has her own Instagram account where you can follow all of her firefighting adventures.
Ashley was rescued by No More Pain, a New Jersey organisation dedicated to saving and relocating animals left to die. The company, a non-profit team of 4, has limited resources and relies heavily on donations. You can help them here.

This article stirs up such a mix of emotions. Such anger and resentment towards the owners who abandoned her (takes a certain kind of awful person to do that), and then respect and adoration for the amazing firemen who already are super selfless, to take in such a clearly loving dog! Bless you guys for all you do!
