Lulu is a brave pet in our shelter.
As you know, there are a lot of forest fires during the summer season. Many forests are badly 36 by fire each year. Not far from our shelter, a forest caught fire during this hot summer. We were in a heatwave which had been 37 for three days.
Lulu rushed towards the forest where flames sent out a terrible 38 . I no longer had any hope that Lulu would come 39 to the shelter. In fact, I was waiting for the firemen to announce his 40 in the forest, when suddenly, a fireman burst into my shelter and 41 me that my dog Lulu had 42 to save four kittens who were trapped by the flames. According to the fireman, Lulu seized the kittens, one by one moving them to a 43 place. I immediately accompanied the fireman to the forest to 44 the rescued kittens. When we arrived at the 45 of the incident, we found Lulu was not 46 . Then we heard the 47 of a dog came from the forest barking furiously. I 48 it was my dog Lulu. The fireman followed the tracks of the dog until we found him barking 49 by the side of an injured fireman who was lying on the ground and desperately 50 rescue. Thanks to Lulu, four kittens and a fireman were saved.
That day, I was very 51 of Lulu for his two heroic 52 toward the kittens and the fireman. Lulu showed much compassion(同情)for both animals 53 him and for a human being who was trying to 54 the fire with his colleagues.
This true story of genuine love and compassion shows us that pets are loving, 55 and compassionate. We should love and protect them. One day they could do us a good turn.
