This Tuesday, Oct. 10, 2017, image taken from video and provided by Jack Weaver shows the family dog, “Izzy,” who was stranded by a wildfire having run off to safety and returned to wait for her owner at their burned-down home in Santa Rosa, Calif. Weaver and his brother-in-law Patrick Widen walked around police barricades, through a creek and up treacherous hilly roads to save Weaver’s mother, Katherine, from the grim task of recovering the body of the family’s beloved dog. When the men reached the end of the narrow road, Weaver swore as he saw the house burned down, but then Izzy came bounding from the rubble for a joyous reunion. (Jack Weaver via AP)
