Arlington, TX (CNN/WSYR-TV) – Cell phone video shows firefighters in Texas carrying out a dramatic rescue, battling to save the life of a fire victim. But, the victim wasn't human, it was a beloved family pet.

Firefighters spent an hour administering oxygen to Leah, a Border Collie, using a special pet breathing mask.

The Arlington Fire Department has put pet oxygen masks on each battalion chief's vehicle and on every ladder truck.

Leah was taken to a vet for a check-up and fire officials say she's expected to be fine.
