Fire Safety with Molly

https://education.microsoft.com/Story/VirtualFieldTrip?token=1P874


 We got to learn about Fire Safety from Molly the Fire Dog over Skype.
 We were Molly's 43/50 State and her trainer was excited that she got to hold the Alaska Flag for the first time!
Molly has a brother named Beau, who is learning how to be a fire safety dog too. They were sleepy because they had accidentally gotten up at 3am thinking that they had a 5am skype when it was a 5pm skype! They taught us to have a plan to get out, to have a meeting place with your family and to crawl when there is smoke. They were very smart dogs! 

Some cool trivia about dalmations. Firetrucks were originally horse-draw carriages, so they were used to keep other dogs away. Dalmations have a special scent that doesn't bother horses, which is why they were so popular as fire station dogs!
