Determined rescuers in India gave new life to a dog in a painful situation.
A passerby noticed a dog covered in tar and frozen in place after he fell into a hot tar pit in Rajasthan, India. A call was placed to Animal Aid Unlimited, a local rescue center for street animals in need of assistance.

Rescuers spent nearly three hours over two days massaging the dog with vegetable oil to loosen the tar from his fur.
