A small dog was recently walking alone and terrified on the outskirts of London after losing his family.
Unfortunately, he chose the dangerous route, right in the middle of the busy train tracks.
Fortunately, Southeastern Railway conductors heard about the little guy and immediately ordered all trains to stop, as they also announced in a Twitter post.
Emergency services use treats to save the dog

Southeastern crews worked quickly to locate the small dog and found him huddled under a train car.
To gain the dog’s trust and lure him out of harm’s way, the emergency crews used treats.
Eventually, they were able to bring the dog to safety and tracked down the dog’s owners.
The puppy was soon back in the arms of his grateful family.
Railroad company appeals to pet owners to be careful

In a press release, Southeastern Railway asks pet owners to be extra vigilant with their animals to avoid such dangerous situations.
Fortunately, in this case, the small dog was rescued safely and returned to its family.
The railroad company would like to thank everyone involved for helping to rescue the dog and reunite it with its family.
