The Big Rescue (downloadable PDF eBook )

When the crew responds to the Bark Mountain Grocery Store, Fire Chief Steve, Goose the Fire Dog and the firefighters race to help.

High above the aisles, they discover a frightened baby raccoon trapped inside a rooftop vent. The little animal is scared, the space is tight, and every move must be made carefully. With ladders raised and the crew working together, Goose uses his sharp ears and gentle heart to help guide the rescue.

Goose the Fire Dog and the Big Rescue is a heartwarming story about courage, kindness and the incredible things that can happen when everyone works together.

Some rescues begin with those who care enough to notice. When someone can’t ask for help, and can’t explain what they need, it only takes one compassionate person to make a difference.

When Goose and the Bark Mountain firefighters discovered a baby raccoon trapped inside the grocery store’s rooftop vent, they knew that they needed to work carefully and together. Rescues require firefighters to stay calm, make a safe plan and treat frightened animals with kindness.

Always remember that the greatest courage is noticing someone in trouble and caring enough to get them the help they need.

Stay safe, be kind and always look out for those who cannot speak for themselves.
