When we are facing a difficult situation, the best thing we can receive is a tender hug that lets us know that everything will be fine .
This gesture does not always have to come from a person or a close family member, sometimes it comes from small beings full of light that with their innocence and infinite love help us find the perfect balance in the midst of so much chaos .
This sweet pup has been working alongside the California firefighters for a little over a year.
Meet Kerith , an adorable licensed therapy dog who is lovingly working alongside firefighters in Marin County, Northern California .
It is well known that the strong and constant forest fires affect not only the biodiversity of our planet, affecting the environment, but also the mental health of those who fight every day to try to control the flames .
His presence helps the firefighters find the emotional balance that they need so much.
Many times we forget that behind the firefighter suits there are men and women who often experience different emotional shocks due to the hard work they face and sometimes not being able to save the person exposed in the fire.
This is where the sweet Keritj comes in, who has become the best refuge and comfort for these heroes without capes .
With his antics and sweet caresses he makes them smile after a long day.
Its owner, Heidi Carmen, comments:
“She doesn’t know there’s a fire. She doesn’t know there is COVID. So she knew that she was seeing her friends and she was very happy to do it. To the firefighters, I think she really made their day.”
Some firefighters have told him that Kerith’s presence on the base has made his behavior improve , we cannot deny that our four-legged friends have this effect.
This beautiful dog is an important member in this fight against forest fires, as it brings joy and comfort to firefighters .
She is the darling at the fire station.
His owner has even decided to open a fundraising campaign on GofundMe to help pay for Kerith’s expenses, including transportation. Part of the statement explains:
“These men and women are incredibly strong, they all need support from time to time, and when it comes to trauma and people exposed to one, we know that sometimes indirect and grassroots support, as well as social contact, can be very effective help.”
Kerith without a doubt is the perfect relief to combat the stress of lifeguards , with hugs and lots of love he helps them to free themselves from heavy loads that affect them emotionally.
The bond with the firefighters is so strong that everyone feels loved and understood when they spend time with her .
His adventures with the firefighters are posted on his Instagram account .
After a beautiful interaction with Kerith, the firefighters reduce anxiety and stress , also lower their blood pressure and improve their cardiovascular health.
Their mood improves one hundred percent, which makes them return to battle recharged with love and with much more strength. What a beautiful job of this sweet dog!
Love has no limits, something that puppies know very well. Thank you for so much sweet Kerith, we appreciate that with your pampering you help transform the world of firefighters. Share!
