This is the moment six pet Corgi dogs flee a flooded home on a boat in Thailand.

The fluffy pooches were stranded in their home with their owners when the water rose to more than 3ft in Pathum Thani province on October 5.

Their owners took them onboard a plastic vessel to travel to a relative's house to escape the deluge.

Footage shows Cooper, Tori, Gucci, Chanel, Chokaew and Chai-ko on the tiny boat while their owners waded in the waist-deep water to drag them to safety.

Pet owner Thom Patarakorn said: 'I had to move my dogs to a better spot. It's better to be safe than sorry.'

Meteorologists have blamed climate change for the sustained heavy rain, which has been hitting the Thai capital and provinces around the country causing severe floods for several weeks.

Thailand's Center for Climate Change and Disaster claimed the coming months could see heavier, longer rainfalls, due to 'climate change'.

Local media reported that the country has this year seen 'an unusually sustained and persistent rainy season'.

The heavy rain has been compounded by the deluge from Typhoon Noru, which dumped water in the northeast region of the country, causing rivers flowing into the central region to swell.
