Sadly, the Draper City Fire Department, who traveled from Utah to help fight a California wild fire, went home without one of their own, who lost his life in the Mendocino complex fire.
But, in what seems a fateful encounter, they also gained a new four legged friend.
Patrick, one of the firefighters, was running the pump at the engine in the middle of the night, when he saw what he thought might be a mountain lion. Then he realized it was a beautiful dog, who needed water.
