Ganpat, an Animal Aid Unlimited rescuer, was the daring volunteer who strapped a rope around his chest and headed into the well. Once he reached the water, he scooped the puppy into his arms and held her close against his chest as a team of rescuers pulled them out of the well.

Veterinarians determined that the puppy was hypothermic, but she made a full recovery after an hour of warm blankets and hot water bottles. She has since been returned to her brood.
