FAIRFAX COUNTY, Va. --
Fairfax County firefighters will begin carrying oxygen masks just for pets in their trucks.
The masks come in three sizes and can help animals survive after they've been exposed to smoke during a fire.
The animal services advisory commission to the police department donated the 120 makes to the fire department.
