"Firefighters Paul Spring, Mark Roland, and Basil Sole quickly jumped into action, applying pressure to Ziggy's wound and fashioning a tourniquet to control the bleeding."
"A veterinarian later said that the firefighters' quick thinking ultimately saved Ziggy's life. If not for their actions, Ziggy would not have survived the ride to the hospital due to excessive blood loss."
Ziggy, a dog, cut his leg on a solar light while playing outside. His sitter took him to the vet, but the bleeding worsened. They stopped at the Campton-Thornton Fire Department for help. Firefighters applied pressure and a tourniquet to control the bleeding. Ziggy was then taken to an animal hospital for surgery on a cut artery, nerves, and tendons. A veterinarian confirmed that the firefighters' quick actions saved Ziggy's life, allowing him to recover fully.
