A Vancouver dog is very thankful for the public after a daring rescue this week.

According to Vancouver Police Department Deputy Howard Chow, "Griffen" was saved after it had jumped into English Bay on Thursday.

Residents jumped into the water to save the "drowning unconscious dog." Griffen was carried out of the water where CPR was performed on him.

Thankfully, resuscitation attempts were successful and Griffen was revived.

"Kudos to the officers who rushed Griffen and his owner to the vet to be checked out," wrote Chow.
