Videos released by the Billesley Fire Department show firemen trying to revive the pup, named Buster, by using a special oxygen mask while one of them lovingly comforted the dog. But Buster, though conscious, struggles to breathe.

But Buster surprises everyone. In a subsequent video posted on Twitter, the pupper wakes up and gives a confused glance to the people who just saved his life. In return, he gets lots of pats for being so brave.
