A Connecticut fire department has adopted a puppy named Riggs after rescuing him from a hot car.
Marcarelli said the dog, who is about 6 months old, had started to "show some signs of distress" in the vehicle, which he said had reached close to 122 degrees Fahrenheit inside.
Riggs will be trained to be a support dog and will accompany fire department staff to community events."Once I saw his personality and everything, [I] really started to get my gears turning about bringing him back here as a station support dog," Marcarelli said, adding that Riggs has a "very welcoming" and "very friendly" demeanor with "a laissez-faire attitude.
Marcarelli said there was an"overwhelming" response when he asked his team if they wanted to bring Riggs on as the department's support dog.In addition to supporting the mental health of fire department staff, Marcarelli said they plan on training Riggs to accompany staffers to community events as well.
"The very next day, we had another call in the same area for a pit bull that was locked in a vehicle. That one is also in the hands of our animal control officer now," Marcarelli said.
