A dog that went missing after being spooked by fireworks on 4 July was found swimming for her life in San Francisco Bay, having been on the run for roughly three weeks. She was eventually spotted struggling in the water and rescued after a passer-by made a fortuitous last-minute stop, ending an hour-long ordeal in the bay.

The rescue was made possible by a Good Samaritan who happened to pull over at the right moment, allowing the exhausted animal to be pulled from the water before she could drown. Beyond these details, the full article content was not available for review, so further specifics of the rescue and the dog's reunion with her owner cannot be confirmed here.
