Very sweet story. That girl won the hearts of her firemen.

RIP Twenty. Let's hope that the station will be able to continue her legacy with a new pup soon.

RIP. I always wondered about the classic connection between Dalmations and firemen. Apparently, it all began back in the day when firetrucks were drawn by horses. The horses would show up at a fire and get freaked out by the flames of the burning building. The dogs were used to calm the horses so they wouldn't take off. A little trivia.
