A lucky dog is safe and sound after being rescued from an icy lake in New Hampshire over the weekend.

Fire department crews in Salem, New Hampshire, rushed to Canobie Lake on Saturday after receiving reports of a dog that had wandered onto the frozen surface and fallen through into the dangerously cold water below.

After getting to the lake, the rescue team quickly deployed an inflatable raft to reach the stranded animal. Dramatic photos shared by the fire department show the tense moments as rescuers navigated across the partially frozen lake.

One of the firefighters, suited up in protective cold-water gear, got in the water to help lift the dog into the raft.

After the rescue, a spokesperson for the department shared images of the rescue operation on social media, writing, "We were able to successfully save the dog."

The rescue is a reminder that pet owners should remember to keep their animals away from frozen bodies of water, especially this time of year, when ice surfaces may not yet be thick enough to safely support weight.
