Dog rescued after floating 75 miles into Baltic Sea
WARSAW, Poland — A frightened, shivering dog was rescued after floating at least 75 miles on an ice floe down Poland’s Vistula River and into the Baltic Sea, officials said Thursday.
Now his saviors just have to figure out who really owns him. Four people have already claimed him, but so far, rescuers say there’s been no wagging tail of joy from the miracle dog they nicknamed “Baltic.”
The dog’s frozen odyssey came as Poland suffers through a winter cold snap, with temperatures dipping to below minus 4 degrees F.
The thick-furred male dog was found adrift Monday 15 miles out in the Baltic Sea by the crew of the Baltica, a Polish ship of ocean scientists carrying out research.
