Over the weekend, firefighters in Washington state rushed to save six 10‑week‑old puppies who were showing signs of a suspected fentanyl overdose. Three of the pups arrived at Sky Valley Fire Station 54 unresponsive and in critical condition, suffering from respiratory failure and even cardiac arrest.
Fire crews immediately jumped into action — performing CPR, giving oxygen therapy, and administering Narcan. All three puppies responded and were successfully revived.
Sheriff’s deputies later found three more puppies at the same home with similar symptoms. They were brought to the station for emergency care before all six were transported to Pilchuck Veterinary Hospital for further treatment.
The best news: all six puppies are now recovering thanks to the quick work of first responders and veterinary staff.
