A chihuahua that resisted being rescued from a Texas bayou by firefighters on Friday is safely back with her owners after a week on the run.
The chihuahua, named Burbie, was spotted on Friday on a support beam for a pedestrian bridge over the Sims Bayou channel at the Houston Botanic Garden, and a passerby alerted staff, who called the Houston Fire Department.
The fire department sent its swift water rescue team, which deployed a swimmer out to the bridge to retrieve the dog.
Burbie was not inclined to be rescued, however, according to video. She barked and lunged at her rescuer before jumping into the water to swim away. She was soon retrieved and brought to shore.
F'ing Mexicans. :)
