Outstanding individual. The world is a much better place with him in it. Thank you!
@Todd Hunter I agree with you 100%
One pet saved!! Glad he made the decision to break the door down!!
Thank goodness for neighbors like him!!!!! Hope other animals were also rescued!!
The most impotant thing - this beautiful dog did not burn up trapped in a cage in this fire. Great job by the neighbor. Sorry for this tough loss but my sense is from this point on it only gets better for them.
Godspeed -
That’s more than a neighbor - that dog is alive thanks to that young artist. Blessings on him, the dog, and the firefighter.
heroes among us!!! I pray everyone’s fur family are found safe
Michael Dempsey you are a wonderful human being !!!
Thank you for your kind words and support 💟 keep our story alive! We will rebuild stronger than ever with support from each other.
@@madmike0190 my thoughts exactly. Cheers !
My mom went to high school with Gil and was good friends with him back then (still friends now.) He's a retired (obviously) Navy Seal with a purple heart and medal of valor from Vietnam. My mom has told me stories about him since I can remember. I knew his dog was safe but I didn't know that his neighbor had saved him. So many pets lost their lives in this fire. Just breaks my heart.
😭💔 This was just devasting all around for the community. This was a good story of an incredible young man being completely selfless in the face of great danger...
God Bless you Michael Dempsey, great job and you too Chief Espinoza... I know there are wonderful people who are going to help you both put your lives back together. ❤
Thank you for your kind words and support 💟 keep our story alive! We will rebuild stronger than ever with support from each other.
I love people like this man. He is a hero.
So encouraging to hear these wonderful stories of rescues!! I'm a Michigander with dogs and cats I know what these rescues mean to their owners!! What a Brave and thoughtful young man!!!! I hope more people did this. That's always the problem with keeping your animals inside they are trapped!!!
Michael is a Hero

Wonderful rescue, I only hope that I would react that same way!!!

This is what neighbors do for each other. Thank you sir for saving that dog! The world needs more people like you.

Way to get the dog.. i could lose everything but as long as I have my dog life is good...the rest can be replaced....

God Bless you Young man. Ive always said I could lose every material thing I own. But Id Willingly DIE saving my dog or a Lived one like my wife ,children, etc.
Good man
Thank goodness!
It’s worth mentioning that this guy ran a business out of his home. He COULD have saved the artwork that is his livelihood - it was in his house next door. But he CHOSE to save the dog. Huge kudos to this guy. ua-cam.com/video/m8lrvJZFpuA/v-deo.html
It was the right thing to do. I didn’t have time to think about it. I’d do it the same all over again 💗
Special people! So glad Chief was rescued❤️
Kudos all way round Thank you for your years of service...prayers your way

Most amazing thing I’ve seen in a while. Thank you for sharing. 🙏🏻
God bless you. You can replace stuff but not living beings. Good man.
What a great human being! Imagine if he died in a crate? A ray of light during a horrible time. May the residents who lost everything be blessed. Again, what a great young man!! Kudos!
God Bless you wow🙏🙏💖 also I'm so sorry for everyone that endured all this May God Bless all of you I'm so sorry 😢🙏
Bless these two and Chief too❤️
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. ❤️❤️❤️I hope God gives back ten fold to both of them and the whole community.
Awesome rescue person...dog, owner and everyone grateful!
Good people. Good choice. I'd hope either someone would do that for me or I'd do it for my neighbors' dogs in similar circumstances.
Thank you saving Chief
God bless 🙌 you for saving fur baby....sending prayers
🐾Thank you, Michael!!!🐾🐶
I am so happy for that dog and for his owner and the guy that saved him is an angel. To be so selfless in such danger, well there's just no comparison. He's a hero.
You, Sir, are beyond the beyond!
Because you took the time to save your neighbor’s dog, you have shown what you are made of; courage & loyalty!

always nice to be on good terms with your neighbor. great job saving the dog!!
Love thy neighbor,really hits home...I love this guy.❤️❤️❤️
I LOVE my neighborhood. Every one of us are friends and would help each other in any way. We are like a tribe or extended family. I love my next door neighbors dogs and she loves mine. I know for a fact that either one of us would help the others pets in anyway we could. It's just great to live in a neighborhood like this.
God bless both of you and your dog Chief , my cousin fought in Vietnam, myself and my family had to deal with the Fort McMurray wildfire and we couldn't exit the town via the south because we were cut off from the fire , so we had to go north about 70 miles to escape from the fire , thankfully the camps for the oil patch opened there doors for all the evacuees and I pray to God it never happens again ❤🙏
🏆😭💔 What an incredibly selfless young man saving Chief. His bravery is absolutely commendable and pure.
Animal lives matter...love this story
So awesome!
Tragic situation; , let's hope lives are saved in time - sjsrana
You are a hero -- pets *are* family & *all* animals are just as important as humans; thank you for going out of your way to be so brave & kind 🙏💜
Humanity is alive and well.
😁😁😁
Awesome! Thank you. It is ALWAYS a good idea to make friends with your neighbors.
Sending a hug to those men. And many pats to a lucky dog.
I would pack up my pets first for sure.
Thank God he was rescued. Why would you crate a dog when you go out? I left dogs by themselves they were fine.
Dogs who destroy furniture when left alone or are still being potty trained must be crated. Usually in most places there aren't raging fires.
Many prayers to all!! It's a trip how you feel and it really is gut wrenching but you guys are strong!!
God bless his heart.
Hero
Good Karma for you Dude !!
Good man!!! Gore at for Chief!
This is awesome. Pretty scary reusing a big German Shepard.
This guy needs a Brand New Motorhome.
God bless! 🇺🇸👍
