\nCOLUMBUS, GA (WTVM<\/a>) \u2013 A Georgia woman who goes above and beyond the call of duty is getting the recognition she deserves after saving a dog from a house fire Friday night.<\/p>\n

Miranda Baras may work part-time at the Animal Ark rescue shelter as a volunteer, but she is full time at saving lives one dog or cat at a time. Baras also works as a firefighter and EMT for Columbus Fire and EMS, and Friday night she helped save\u00a0a 14-year-old dog from a house fire on Beacon Avenue.<\/p>\n

The dog was completely overcome and unresponsive when firefighters pulled him from the home, according to a Facebook post on The Columbus Department of Fire and EMS page.<\/p>\n

The firefighters, including Miranda Baras, used donated pet rescue mask kits to save the K-9 that was trapped inside the home. After treatment, the dog was able to get up and walk around!<\/p>\n

\u201cShe is superwoman and saves pets and people every day! And when she\u2019s not working, she\u2019s volunteering with the elderly,\u201d said Assistant Director at Animal Ark Rescue Caitlyn Townsend.<\/p>\n

The mask kits were sponsored by Dr. Wylie at Double Churches Animal Clinic.<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
