A group of students team up to rescue a dog that has fallen down a canal

Jack Spencer Furmston and Ben Camphor, two 20-year-old students, were walking home from a bar in Manchester when they saw the dog’s owner, Batu Akoyl, distraught: the four-legged friend had landed in the muddy waters of the canal. They started an appeal, which was joined by five other people. Camphor was hung up to grab the dog by the collar. Despite the weight of the soaked animal, he managed to lift it and carry it out of the canal.

“I’m a dog owner too, so I couldn’t have left him alone, but the first time I couldn’t get him,” the young man commented with satisfaction and excitement. The video received over 36,500 likes and more than 650 comments thanking the team that rescued Sumak.
