Enter Kato’s Rescuers: Evergreen Fire Rescue

When Kato refused to move despite his family’s many attempts, his humans knew it was time to call for some help. Soon enough, a group of volunteers from Evergreen Fire Rescue. They hoisted Kato onto a larger stretcher, and carried him the 1 mile back to the trailhead.

Today’s EFR had a “patient” on the Maxwell Falls trail who was exhausted and most likely dehydrated. About 5 1/2 years old, 120lbs and a fluffy Great Pyrenees named Kate. Good thing Kato’s humans reached out for assistance as they were about 1 mile away from the trail head. pic.twitter.com/Zrb7G28T1e

Stacee Marten, public information officer for Evergreen Fire Department told KUSA-TV, Denver, “We heard ‘dog in distress,’ and a bunch of us showed up.

We choose to help animals.

Doesn’t matter if it’s a horse stuck in the mud, owls that fall out of the nest … this is something that the community supports.”

Be sure to pass along Kato’s story because after all, we ALL could use a little help sometimes!
