A heartwarming rescue effort at Kompleks Sukan Lahad Datu (LD Sports Complex) has gone viral after staff members bravely saved a stray dog stuck in a flooded drain during heavy rain.
In the now-viral video, the dog can be seen sitting helplessly in a storm drain, soaked and shivering.
It appeared to have injured legs and was unable to climb out on its own as the water levels rose.
Thankfully, the staff at the complex sprang into action. Wearing gloves and armed with ropes and a shovel, they carefully hoisted the frightened pup out of the drain.

A photo full of meaning… we saw a helpless creature in need of help,” wrote the complex’s team in a touching caption.
Once rescued, the dog was gently dried, checked for injuries, and later brought to a shelter for further treatment and care.
According to the comments, the dog was later handed over to an NGO and is now under the protection of SPCA Lahad Datu.
Netizens praise the ‘Everyday Heroes’
Netizens flooded the comment section with praise for the staff’s swift action and compassion.
Another concerned commenter asked about the dog’s condition, prompting the complex to confirm that SPCA had been contacted and the dog was receiving medical attention.
