Officials observed the dog had an injured front leg and determined a water rescue was necessary. Firefighters donned protective dry suits, flotation devices, and helmets before entering the water.
Lt. Michael Maynard and engineer Corey Knipstein made their way across the canal to the location of the dog, who officials described as "cold and wet, but friendly."
The pair secured the dog, a 45-pound black mixed-breed, and carried it to shore. Fire officials posted a series of photos showing the rescue.
