A man in Livingston County sprang into action to rescue his dog who fell through ice chasing a toy.

Dave Hillier was taking his dog Bruce out for a walk in Fowlerville. The dog chased a toy onto a pond.

"Bruce didn't care if the ice was safe or not -- he wanted his toy," Hillier said.

Thankfully, Hillier was able to rescue Bruce and everyone is fine. A happy ending is always great.
