The LAFD firefighter seen across the country dangling from a helicopter and jumping into the Los Angeles River to save a dog talks about the rescue. Joe St. Georges was bitten a number of times by the dog as the firefighter scooped him out of the water.

I am interested in hearing from the fire department community on this one.
Should the the fire department expend the resources and risk injury to a fire fighter to save a dog?
Was it worth having a fire fighter injured and now unable to work for weeks to rescue a dog from the river?
