DESOTO, Texas — A DeSoto firefighter is offering to adopt the same dog he rescued from a local pond Wednesday morning.
“When you rescue something you kind of grow a bond, so I just told them if the owner doesn’t claim it, I want to adopt him,” said Craig Kirk, DeSoto’s technical rescue expert.
The 3-year-old Scottish terrier was stranded on a small plastic fountain in the pond, near the corner of Winning Colors Court and Wolf Drive. “I was like, ‘Man, we got to go get this dog quick because it was tired cold and scared,’” said Kirk.
