Firefighters pulled a dog that went missing nearly two weeks ago over the\u00a0Fourth of July\u00a0holiday from\u00a0San Francisco Bay.<\/p>\n
Menlo Park\u00a0firefighters said they got a call over the weekend from a worried resident who saw a pup swimming out into the bay.<\/p>\n
It was an all-hands-on-deck mission, according to a\u00a0Facebook\u00a0post published Saturday by the\u00a0Menlo Park Fire Protection District.<\/p>\n
The dog, the department wrote in a post, “just kept swimming.”<\/p>\n
With the help of a drone, firefighters say they were able to locate the tiny pup.<\/p>\n
The East Palo Alto Police Department\u00a0posted a separate video from the rescue that shows the dog swimming furiously with seagulls circling overhead and firefighters scooping him out of the murky water and swaddling him in towels.<\/p>\n
“Tiny dog escapes marsh, survives aerial assault by an organized gang of seagulls, and is rescued by the\u00a0Menlo Park Fire Department,”\u00a0East Palo Alto\u00a0police wrote. “12\/10 action movie.”<\/p>\n
The fire department said it turned over the dog to the SPCA, which reunited the dog with its owners.<\/p>\n
