DailyCaller: Wildfires in Northern California continue to destroy homes and threaten lives, with more than 40 people dead already. The only thing that could possibly bring a bit of joy to the area is a dog.
Early one morning last week in Santa Rosa, the Widen family was forced to evacuate hastily as wildfires began to consume their neighborhood, the Sacramento Bee reports.
Their Bernese Mountain dog, Izzy, got loose as they were leaving, and the family didn’t have time to look for her.
So they left her behind with everything else. They knew their house would be gone forever and Izzy probably would be, too. MORE
We need at least one happy ending from this terrible story. Good girl.
I miss my sweet Bernese, Liberty. She died way too young. She was a tumor factory.
I read (somewhere) there were other pets who turned up, too. This is wonderful news for those families at a time they can use all the good news they can get. Pictures of the devastated neighborhoods are just unreal. And the story of the couple who took refuge in their neighbor’s pool for six hours was incredible. I can’t understand why so many didn’t have any official warning and barely got out alive. At least that’s what several of the people said.
Good for them!!! Guess Saint Frances watched over the pooch…
We needed a happy story for a change. Too much tragedy this month – almost unbearable and the unthinkable happened. California will survive. I wonder how many Democrats lost their homes and are pissed at Jerry Brown for spending all the money on the illegals? I heard he got booed when he showed up at the fires. Boos are nothing, should have thrown hot coals on him!

They said they prayed that Izzy would still be alive, when they called the dog he came running. I didn’t hear them thank God. Maybe I shouldn’t be too hard on them, people lost everything even though they prayed.
