“He ran to the kitchen and was trying to put the fire out with water,” she said. “After we left, he ran back into the house to try to save our puppies and his grandfather’s guitar. He kept saying he couldn’t breathe and I was shouting at him to leave the house.” She added: “I told him to get down and he crawled out. I pulled him out of the fire. Then we got in the car and drove out of the driveway.”Klein said it was a “miracle” that Larry survived, as the man suffered burns on his hands and face. He was later let out of the hospital in time for his granddaughter’s birthday, according to the outlet.
Though the family was able to escape the fire, Louie did not. The parrot, along with the family’s other pet dogs, perished in the blaze — but a generous Good Samaritan, who is providing a place to stay for the Kleins as they look for a new home, gifted a new baby parrot to the family.
