This man was DEFINITELY in the right place at the right time when it came to saving the life of a dog trapped in the waters of an icy cold dam in Romania.
The fisherman and his friend heard the desperate barking of a terrified dog, who was trapped in the icy waters of a high embankment dam - and they immediately set to work rescuing the frightened pup.
Knowing the dog's life was in danger, the pair did not waste any time calling emergency services, instead climbing down and luring the dog up onto the concrete wall of the dam.
From there, he picked the dog up by the scruff of his neck (to prevent the animal hurting itself or him) and carried him through the waters to the nearby riverbank.
But that's not the amazing part.
With his paws finally on solid ground, the overjoyed dog made sure to thank his rescuers in the only way he knew how - and the emotional moment will leave you with a lump in your throat.

We're so glad those animal lovers took the time to make sure the little dog was safe and sound - and we're even gladder that the dog appreciated their efforts too.
