LONG BEACH, Calif.—Long Beach lifeguards rescued a small white dog and reunited it with its owner March 12.
The rescue began about 6 p.m. Saturday when the lifeguards answered a call about a dog running loose in the Junipero beach parking lot, according to a Long Beach Fire Department’s Facebook post.
“LifeGuard 7 put on his Wetsuit, grabbed his rescue board and bouy, and headed out to rescue the small white lap dog. The little dog made it out to the swim line, and with Rescue Boat 2’s help, LG7 could get the dog on the rescue board and bring it safely to shore,” the post read.
The dog was initially taken to Animal Care Services, and its owner was called to take it home.
