Three Boston Terriers were inside the house even though nobody was home at the time.
An Amazon delivery driver in the United States is earning praises for her heroic act of rescuing three puppies from a burning house in Florida. The good samaritan noticed smoke from a nearby home on August 30 while working in North Central Florida and called the police, according to Columbia County Fire Rescue (CCFR).
Three Boston Terriers were inside the house even though nobody was home at the time.
CCFR claimed that the woman saved both the dogs and the house and praised her quick thinking.
"During a structure fire yesterday, three puppies were saved and revived from smoke inhalation. Thank you to the Amazon driver who noticed the smoke and called 911," wrote CCFR.
"Since the homeowner was not at home at the time, she saved the home and puppies' lives!" the post added.
The Amazon delivery executive was identified on social media comments as Angeline Starkey. She said, "just happy I got there when I did."

"Thank you for all your kind words, prayers, and donations. I can never thank you enough".
Ms. Sutton shared an update on the dogs' health and wrote that they are still in the hospital but are doing well.

The Saviors:
In July, a pizza delivery worker named Nicholas Bostic risked his life in Indiana to save two children and three teenagers from a burning home. He suffered "severe injuries" as a result of the incident.
He successfully saved the lives of four siblings, who were 1, 6, 13, and 18 years old, and a 13-year-old who was sleeping over.
