This dog did not hesitate to throw himself into the flames to look for his master thus managing to raise the alarm and save four people. Saved at the last minute, she then turned out to be pregnant.
She didn't hesitate for a moment and, desperate to find her human friend, she ran into the burning building and barked loudly. Matilda is a hero dog who with her gesture of unconditional love managed to raise the alarm and save four patients of a Russian hospice where a serious fire broke out on November 3, in the Tosno district, in the Leningrad region. .
An instinctive and heroic gesture, which however cost the bitch a lot: after fainting from breathing rivers of carbon monoxide, she suffered severe burns and was saved only thanks to the intervention of volunteers Elena Kalinina and Alexander Tsinkevich of Vasilek Animal Shelter in St. Petersburg.

Only later rescued by the volunteers, Matilda was transported to the shelter where, during the examination, in addition to severe burns, it was discovered that Matilda was pregnant.
As stated by the refuge in an appeal on VK.com:
Doctors do not recommend aborting a dog in this state. Therefore, we need to wait for the natural birth and feed the puppies. Matilda for health reasons due to severe burns will not be able to do this. You need a nursing bitch or a person who can be with puppies 24/24.
The actual help that Matilda needs at the moment is:
lactating bitch or a person with the ability to feed.
Bandages, large sterile wipes.
Assistance in paying for the hospital stay
The puppies are expected to be born between 25 and 28 November. It is still impossible to figure out the number of puppies, but according to the vet who monitors Matilda, all the puppies are alive and developing well.
We are making incredible titanic efforts to heal his abdomen, […] The muzzle heals very well. We keep our fingers crossed for our Matilda and we firmly believe that both she and her puppies will be saved.
Come on Matilda, the whole world cheers for you!
