If this doesn’t warm your heart on this chilly Friday then nothing will.

A Yellow Lab puppy named Noodle escaped his leash and fell into the Gulf of Naples while riding on a ferry with his owner. The ferry operators told the owner, Mario di Meglio that Noodle was likely a goner.

Enter the heroes.

A group of six sailors from a local club spotted Noodle furiously treading water. Labs are, of course, very strong swimmers.

“We approached, we were sailing and maneuvering was not easy,” the sailor, Massimiliano Cappa, told the newspaper La Repubblica.

“He was visibly exhausted, his legs almost paralyzed by the cold,” Cappa said. “He was shaking and crying.”

Upon reaching the shore Noodle was reunited with his devastated dad.
