After working nine gruelling days of search and rescue (SAR) operations at the Batang Kali landslide site, K9 dogs Geoffrey and Grouse were recently seen getting a much-needed spa day

In a 35-second TikTok video, the two four-legged heroes were seen being shaved by fire and rescue personnel.

And the two canines couldn't have looked more pleased or handsome. (Well, Grouse didn't look too pleased but at least Geoffrey was loving the spa day.)

Netizens were very pleased to see the K9 dogs getting the treatment they deserved after working so hard

One netizen commented, asking if the dogs got to play and rest now, to which the original poster confirmed that they are indeed getting all the playtime and rest they want.

Both SAR workers and K9 dogs alike worked tirelessly to ensure that no stone was left unturned when searching for the missing victims.

Now that the SAR mission has come to an end, all fire and rescue personnel can breathe a sigh of relief.

It's nice to see our local heroes being pampered like this after working so hard.
