A strong gust of wind blew a dog's cage off the edge of the front porch and trapped him inside.

CCTV footage shows the one-year-old Beagle pooch named Mookrob climbing inside the enclosure while playing with a friend when it tipped over on its side in Saraburi province, Thailand on September 28.

Pet owner Nawaporn said: ‘I checked the CCTV and found that Mookrob was stuck in the cage, so I asked to take time off work to help him.'

She later found Mookrob crying, although unhurt, inside the steel house and let him out.

Thailand and neighbouring countries in Southeast Asia are in their annual monsoon rainy season which sees soaring temperatures followed by powerful rain storms in the afternoon leading to widespread flash floods.
