Man who lost his home in LA Fire overwhelmed as he’s reunited with lost dog: ‘Oh my God, you’re alive!’

Heartwarming video shows the moment a Californian who lost his home in the Palisades Fire is reunited with the pet dog he feared had been killed, getting overwhelmed with emotion as it runs into his arms.

Casey Colvin was filmed spotting his lost dog Oreo through a neighbor’s gate, then sobbing as it finally jumped into his arms.

“Oh, honey! Oh my God, you’re alive! You’re alive!” Colvin cries through tears while holding high in his arms and cheering.

Overwhelmed, Colvin ran in circles pumping his arms in the air in joy, yelling: “Yes! Oh thank you, Jesus! Thank you, God!”

Colvin was at work when he was ordered to evacuate his home — then spent five hours in traffic desperately trying to get to save his dogs, Oreo and Tika Tika Tika, he told NBC Los Angeles.

“I literally rescued them off the streets, they deserve better than this,” a sobbing Colvin told reporter Liz Kreutz while sitting in stand-still traffic. “How do I get to my house?”

When Colvin was unable to get home, a firefighter offered to search for his dogs. While the firefighter was able to save Tika Tika Tika, Oreo ran off into the neighborhood.

Soon after, his home burned to the ground. Despite the loss, Colvin remained determined to find Oreo, posting a flyer of the missing dog online and using an AirTag he had on the pet to try and locate him.

On Jan. 12, Kreutz shared an update on the search efforts. Colvin said Oreo had been spotted twice, and in one instance was “seen sleeping in the rubble of a neighbor’s home.”

After returning to what remained of his home with a professional dog trapper, Colvin finally found Oreo hiding amidst the dirt and debris left behind after the fire.

The heartwarming reunion, captured by NBC, shows Colvin coaxing the scared pooch out of the ruins and down his neighbor’s driveway.

The Palisades and Eaton fires remained out of control Monday morning, nearly a week since they started tearing through Los Angeles County, killing at least 24 people and displacing nearly 200,000.

At least 39,000 acres of land have burned down and as many as 10,000 structures have been destroyed.
