Emergency Services are now trying to contact the dog’s owner.
Witnesses at the scene said the two people saw the dog in trouble and jumped in to help. They stayed in the water with him until the fire brigade arrived.
They stayed with him the whole time till the boats came, he was very calm with them. Tears in me eyes. pic.twitter.com/znFxfvnnCP
