Man dashes onto road to save puppy trying to escape oncoming traffic

While motorists attempted to avoid a puppy wandering along Upper Thomson Road, one man took it upon himself to rescue the distressed animal.

In a video posted by Facebook user Sunita Parhar, a small dog could be seen walking in the middle of two lanes, while trying to avoid oncoming vehicles.

Many drivers could be seen slowing down their cars as they approached the puppy.

Ms Parhar said: "We were driving down Upper Thomson Road and this poor puppy was running in the middle of the road."

"Poor pup looked so distressed."
