The Northwest Volunteer Fire Department documented the heartwarming rescue on Facebook, sharing images of the tiny canine peering through the car window as rescuers approached.
Scorching temperatures
"Heroes in Action!" exclaimed the department in their post, emphasising the urgency of the situation due to the soaring temperatures, which peaked at a sweltering 33°C.
The firefighters' swift response and expertise safely removed the dog from the boiling hot car. Photos revealed firefighters providing the pup with water and comforting cuddles as they nursed it back to health.
Successful rescue
The post attracted an outpouring of appreciation from the animal-loving community, with comments praising their efforts.
Some people asked about the dog's owners and what would happen to them. The department reassured everyone that the correct authorities had been notified and that they were cooperating fully with the investigation.
Thank goodness that the dog was spotted when it was and the firefighters were able to act so quickly or it might have been a tragic end.
