Therapy dogs used to uplift firefighters battling massive blaze in Northern California

First-responder therapy dogs have been brought in to help uplift firefighters battling the Park Fire in Northern California.

“Ember, Ember, and Hudson reporting for duty at the #ParkFire!” Cal Fire posted on X , formerly Twitter. “We are here to help the humans with their mental health while assigned to the incident and away from their other humans and fur friends.”

The three therapy dogs recently arrived at a base camp in Butte County, local authorities said.

The Park Fire , the largest wildfire in California this year and the sixth largest in the state’s recorded history, had scorched 383,000 acres as of Tuesday afternoon.

The massive blaze is one of more than 100 large active wildfires currently burning across the United States.
