Once the owners reached safety themselves, they immediately called a rescue crew which was able to get there quite quickly.

The river was tough, but the well-trained rescuers were able to get close enough to the truck to begin the rescue.

As for the dog, he was terrified. It wasn’t clear he was injured or not at this point, and rescuers tried to get the dog to go to them, but the scared dog refused to move even one inch.

That’s when one of the brave rescuers decided to take things a step further and jumped into the back of the truck to get the dog.

He/She was very smart about it as well. Taking a moment to test how scared is the dog and see if the dog is okay with anyone approaching him.

The rescuer touched the dog and pet them before getting close to them to ensure the dog that they are here to help him and will not cause him any harm.
