The Kiss Of The Doberman

My sister e-mailed this to me today:

The Kiss...

The photograph below shows a red Doberman licking an exhausted fireman.

He had just saved her from a fire in her house, rescuing her by carrying her out of the house into her front yard, while he continued to fight the fire. She is pregnant.

The firefighter was afraid of her at first, because he had never been around a Doberman before.

When he finally got done putting the fire out, he sat down to catch his breath and rest.

A photographer from the Charlotte, North Carolina newspaper, "The Observer," noticed this red Doberman in the distance looking at the fireman. He saw her walking straight toward the fireman and wondered what she was going to do.

As he raised his camera, she came up to the tired man who had saved her life and the lives of her babies, and kissed him, just as the photographer snapped this photograph.



And they say animals are dumb. Yeah, right.

  7. Being a Doberman owner, I can see this as a sign of gratitude from Cinnamon for sure... I have never seen a dobe go up to a stranger to lick their face, they'd usually keep their distance... she was definitely thanking him for getting her out, even if all he did was open a door. Nice story, I've seen this picture on the net for a while but never searched the info about it until now... wow!

    various risks. Additionally they know what form of cars are inclined to
    higher risk plus the higher risk they've the higher a premium rate.

  20. One thing I'd really like to say is that often car insurance canceling is a feared experience and if you're doing the best
    things as being a driver you may not get one. Some individuals do
    are sent the notice that they've been officially dumped by their particular insurance company they then have to fight to get additional insurance from a cancellation. Inexpensive auto insurance rates usually are hard to get following a cancellation. Having the main reasons pertaining to auto insurance termination can help car owners prevent burning off one of the most vital privileges obtainable. Thanks for the thoughts shared through your blog.
