A daring rescue mission unfolded at the Tergasul terminal in Canoas, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, on May 6, 2024. Engineers were radioed with a distress call reporting a dog trapped in cables on the port side of the vessel.

Upon receiving authorization from the Captain, a courageous crew member wasted no time to spring into action. Equipped with pallets and cylinders, preparations for the rescue maneuver began swiftly. With the crew's coordinated efforts, the rescuer descended into the water and swam toward the stranded canine.

Despite the dog's injuries from the barbed wire, the rescuer fearlessly pulled the animal to safety and swam back to the boat. With the assistance of sailors, oilers, engineers, and the second pilot, the dog was hoisted on board and provided with much-needed nourishment.

Info from Licensor: "At the Tergasul terminal in Canoas - Rio Grande do Sul - Brazil, on the Kempton ship that was docked. Engineers radioed that a dog was trapped in cables on the port side of the boat. We saw him, and I asked the Captain for permission to go and rescue him, he authorized me to go down and swim towards him. The crew began preparing the maneuver with pallets and cylinders. When I came down, I swam towards the dog. He suffered injuries from the barbed wire, so I didn't hesitate to pull him up and swim with him towards the boat. I received the rope with a knot already prepared by the sailors and as soon as I tied it they quickly brought it. As soon as he arrived on board, he was fed. Looking at his condition, it looked like he hadn't eaten in days. For now, he remains on board until the water level drops. The crew that participated in the rescue maneuver were sailors, oilers, engineers and the second pilot who spoke to you with authorization from the Commander."
