This week’s Photo of the Week comes from the Phoenix Fire Department, showing how a special piece of equipment went to good use after a fire in the city.

Phoenix Paramedic Jake McDaniel reached into a “FIDO” bag, a kit that contains first aid equipment specifically made for pets, and used a dog-sized mask to resuscitate a furry family member who fell unconscious during the blaze.

Officials say the pup is now recovering and that no one else was injured in the fire.
