Heroic Construction Workers Rescue Dog From Drowning in Irrigation Channel

In Pasaje Canton, Ecuador, a group of construction workers made a life-saving rescue when they used their digger to save a dog from drowning in an irrigation channel. According to the Daily Mail, construction workers were told about a dog that had been swept away by the current and was at risk of drowning. Without hesitation, one of the local construction workers, Abel Murillo, climbed into the scoop of the digger and set off to save the helpless dog.

The video footage by ViralHog shows Murillo anxiously navigating his way through the channel with his digger. With the help of his colleagues, he eventually comes across the frightened dog being carried down by strong currents. Miraculously, he manages to get close enough to grab hold of the dog before lifting it from danger and returning it safely back to dry land. The relieved dog looks a little frazzled and shocked. However, he is no doubt looking forward to heading home for some well-deserved rest!
