The Thai rig workers discovered and rescued a dog floating off the coast, about 220km from the coast of this country.

The dog was pulled onto the rig.

The rig workers named the dog Boonrod, which means “survivor” in Thai.

Boonrod was exhausted and needed food and clean water to drink.

The dog was washed with fresh water and slept soundly.

Boonrod was examined by a veterinarian upon arrival
