A dog was rescued after being swept into a storm drain in San Bernardino, California, on Monday, January 16, according to San Bernardino County Fire.

A social media post from San Bernardino County Fire said the dog, a one-year-old Australian shepherd named Seamus, was swept away in the fast-moving waters of a flood-control basin after running away from his owner on a walk.

Seamus’s owner told local news, “He got away from me and he just went down into this drainage. The water was going so fast I think all it took was one paw in that water and he was gone.”

Firefighters said concerned witnesses helped them locate Seamus in an access tube.
