There are days when we read about animal cruelty and then there are better days when we see how people help stranded animals. A Peruvian reporter recently did the kindest act when he stopped his live coverage of a flood to rescue a dog frantically looking for a dry place.

According to a media report, Aaron Rodriguez was busy doing his job for a Peruvian news channel Latina Noticias reporting about a flood when he saw a dog struggling to survive. The reporter went ahead and stopped the live coverage to rescue the dog from the flood. The wandering dog was trying to find an escape route after it looked to be in the water for a while but could not find one when the reporter helped it out.

Rodriguez who was reporting in the streets filled with water immediately came to the help of the animal and carried it in his hand before dropping it to a safer place nearby. The video, shot by the videographer was posted online and is making many people happy with this act of kindness.
