3. Awwww! Who's a good girl!

She deserves a nice, juicy steak and some extra belly rubs after this!

4. What a good girl!

It looks like they're doing an extra careful job of keeping her protected while she works. It makes me happy to see her safety gear.

5. Thank God for Frida and her sisters and brothers!!

Saw her picture earlier, just beautiful and heart-breaking. Very thoughtful owner/handler with booties and goggles.

She is doing great work and I'm thrilled to see what good care she's getting!

10. No, she did not. That's a feel-good lie that has already been debunked.

It’s easy to see why people are confused. News outlets like Buzzfeed News have published videos claiming that Frida has saved over 50 people in Mexico. But she hasn’t found anyone yet in the rubble of this most recent quake. Not yet, anyway. A lot of people have gotten the wrong idea.

In reality, the 52 people that Frida has found is the total number found over her entire career with the Mexican Navy’s canine unit. And most people she’s found haven’t been recovered alive.

11. Oh GOOD DOG!

That is so good. We raised a couple guide dogs and you know, you wouldn't think so, but when they are working, they LOVE to work. They really do. Get out that harness and that dog is ready to go to work.

12. Rock on, Frida!

13. Interesting that the dog's name is the same

As the mythical little girl at the school.
