Two abandoned puppies are rescued from the top of a dangerous riverbed on the Greek island of Crete.<br /><br />In the video, filmed on January 17, a rescue worker from Gouves Animal Shelter can be seen cutting through heavy vegetation with secateurs.<br /><br />Writes the filmer: "The top of the river bed leads onto a busy main road with fast cars so they were in danger either way: falling down the steep river bed or going onto the busy road to risk being killed. <br /><br />"It took a long time to rescue them because the two puppies (both boys) were scared and every time we got further into the bushes they went further inside them. <br /><br />"After hours of trying we finally got them and took them straight to the vets for a checkup. It was probably the first time they ever felt a kind human hand and after a few days, they have started to come out of their shell and enjoy life. <br /><br />"Both boys are now safe in amazing foster homes and they are about eight weeks old. Both pups are available for adoption and can travel abroad to good homes."
