On Sunday, Brevard County firefighters helped rescue a puppy that was stranded across a water-filled ditch. Officials said the husky was not injured but had no ID tags.

After posting the dog’s photo on social media, a firefighter came across a lost dog sign with a photo that matched the puppy.

By the next day, firefighters said the husky had been reunited with its owners.
