Things do really come full circle. When Robert Lee, a firefighter with the Fresno Fire Department in California, was 6 years old, his house caught fire on July 4 due to fireworks. However, his beloved pup was rescued in the nick of time by firemen. Now, 21 years later on the same day, Lee has become the hero to save a dog from a fire.
