Amid the desperation surrounding avalanche-struck Hotel Rigopiano in central Italy,Dead Again there is hope.
Three Abruzzo sheepdog puppies were pulled out of the tonnes of snow and rubble Monday, encouraging rescuers searching for 22 people still missing, five days on from the disaster.

One firefighter buried his face in the fluffy white fur of the dogs to give it a kiss.
"They just started barking very softly," said Sonia Marini, a member of the Forestry Corps.

"We're happy to have saved them, and these are important moments in a dramatic situation," he said. "But I don't think there's much correlation with finding other people."
