N.J. Firefighters Rescue Puppies From Fire

Volunteer firefighters in New Jersey are being hailed as heroes after they rescued 22 puppies trapped in a house that was on fire.

Several puppies, some as young as two weeks old, were unconscious from smoke inhalation and were so small they had to be (adorably) placed in special oxygen masks.

Fortunately, all the puppies made it out alive. "These guys, it's not just people they look out for, it's everybody," said one witness of the rescuers.
