A puppy, along with a dog and cat, were rescued from the treacherous waters of Kedron Brook after being spotted in distress on a moored boat. 



The Rescue 

The incident occurred on Saturday night, 8 Nov, after concerned citizens alerted authorities about the puppy’s perilous situation. Brisbane Water Police swiftly responded to the scene and located the small canine clinging to a partially submerged tyre. 

Officers carefully retrieved the animals and transported them to an emergency vet clinic in Stafford for immediate medical attention.

Despite the successful rescue, questions remain unanswered. No one was found on the boat to account for the puppy or the two other animals discovered on board. The RSPCA has taken over the investigation to determine the circumstances surrounding the incident and ensure the animals’ well-being.
