Firefighters in southeast Texas document the dramatic rescue of a puppy that had become trapped in a sewer pipe on Friday, authorities say.

Firefighters in southeast Texas lassoed and rescued a wayward puppy that had become trapped in a sewer pipe on Friday, authorities said.

The hour-long animal emergency operation unfolded in Atascocita, about 25 miles outside of downtown Houston, where the pooch fell down the exposed pipe, officials said. The line ran about seven feet deep before it curved, stopping the puppy's fall and allowing firefighters the chance to painstakingly wrap rope around it, Battalion Chief Vincent Rodriguez told NBC News.

"It was a very small puppy and it was very scared," said Rodriguez."We were getting a little worried for a while, but those guys remained calm and got the job done."
