CheektowagaPD
Watching this daring dog rescue might make you shiver, but the end result is heart-warming … a much needed boost to end the year.
A Boxer found itself in peril Wednesday in the town of Cheektowaga, outside Buffalo, NY, stuck in an icy cold creek as temperatures were barely above freezing.
Cheektowaga PD says the super timid pup — recently rescued from a puppy mill — got spooked, ran from its owner and unfortunately headed toward the creek.
Cops had a hard time locating the poor pooch, but Patrolman James Rutkowski eventually spotted it and jumped into the chilly water — up to his waist — for the rescue mission.
Officer Rutkowski was slipping and sliding over trees to get to the cold doggie, but fortunately, it was already wearing a harness … which allowed him to lift the dog out to safety and hand it to another cop closer to dry land.
Crisis averted, and the boxer was checked out at an animal hospital … all’s well.
