Navy officers have welcomed a furry new friend to their ranks after saving him from the floods in Tabasco, Mexico.

A team found the animal stranded while traveling in a boat past houses that were partially submerged in water. The Secretary of the Navy posted a video of the rescue on its Facebook page on November 15.

Authorities saw the dog standing on its hind legs in the flood water as it used its front legs to lean against a window frame. Once the boat approached the dog, an officer gently patted him before helping him get on board the small boat.

Days after the rescue, officials from the organization revealed that they have welcomed the dog into their ranks as no one came to claim it. They also included clips of the animal in a navy blue uniform while interacting with the team.
