By: -----
Sanford, FL - Florida officers sprang into action Tuesday morning, rescuing an unconscious dog from a blazing home.
In bodycam footage released by the Sanford Police Department (SPD), several officers are seen working alongside firefighters during a house fire near the 300 block of Appaloosa Court.
Police say they safely evacuated the family from the home before an officer bravely retreated into the blaze to find the family's husky.
The officer reportedly pulled the limp dog's crate from the freshly extinguished fire and carried it to safety.
According to one officer, the dog "appeared lifeless from smoke inhalation," causing officers to place an oxygen mask over the dog's snout and revive the husky over the course of 30 minutes.
"Dogs are family man," the officer is heard saying following the rescue. "They love unconditionally."
SPD says one resident suffered minor injuries from the blaze.
