From being rescued to becoming the rescuer, the newest canine member of the Orange County Fire Authority has quite the inspiring story.
K9 search specialist Eric Darling says the advantage of using dogs is that they have "four-wheel drive" and an incredible nose.
"Their olfactory system is so much higher than ours," he added. "When we send the dog, once they get that odor in their nose, they are moving as fast and as safely as possible over rubble that isn't always safe to locate the person. Because finding the people in minutes, compared to hours - which is why we use the dog - is critical.
