At one point, the first responder reaches the block of ice and wiggles his way over to the dog who just keeps moving backwards until he managed to catch up with him.

The two then plunge back into the water and are pulled over to the shore with the help of other emergency crew and a rope.

A description with the video explained that Lola had become trapped on the ice after she had escaped from her owner’s property. A passerby, ended up calling authorities for help after the person witnessed the animal go into the river.

Emergency responders ended up warming Lola up in the squad vehicle after the successful rescue and the pup was reunited with her owner, according to local news outlets.
