Dog spotted in water during dinner cruise: yacht crew jumps into action to save her life
When a couple noticed a puppy suffering in the water, their dinner cruise on a yacht took an extremely unexpected turn, motivating the crew to perform an amazing rescue.
Terry Johns was leading a dinner cruise between Fort Myers Beach and Lighthouse Beach in Florida on board the Sanibel Harbor Princess.
But when a couple noticed a puppy in the water, trying to keep afloat, the cruise took an unexpected turn, according to WINK News.
Captain Johns said to WINK, “I looked out, and I saw something in the water.” “Then I heard dogs, dogs, dogs,” all of a sudden.”
To save the dog, the captain and his crew sprang into action. It was unclear whether the animal had been dragged in by the powerful currents or had fallen from a boat.
Kurt Echols, the co-captain, reportedly guided the yacht towards the dog, enabling the crew to save it at the swim platform, according to People.
The dog was subsequently given food and drink by the crew and passengers, and she was thanked for being spared and was characterized as “very friendly.”

The dog was brought to the coast in the hopes of reuniting her with her family. Her microchip was unreadable, though. However, her owners were thankfully informed when the incident made the press.
Ellie, the dog owned by Ben and Kathleen Baker, was lost while on a boat trip. They looked all over the waterways for her, but they couldn’t find her.
They were inconsolable and said, “I just assumed that was it. Ben said to WINK News, “I’m 72 years old, and I have probably cried more in the last 18 hours.”
However, Ellie was located, saved, and reunited with her family because of this boat crew.
What a miracle! We are very grateful to everyone on this yacht for assisting this puppy who went overboard to safely return home!
