TAMPA BAY, FLORIDA — Dog is sunny Florida will luckily live to bark another day all thanks to the quick actions of doctor Mohammad Awad. <br />CNN reported that the Tampa Bay doctor had just gotten off a shift on Monday when he arrived back at his apartment building. <br /><br />Awad told CNN that as he walked up to the elevator, his neighbor had just gotten off with her dog, but the leash was still inside the elevator door. <br />The doctor shared surveillance camera footage from his building's security camera on his Facebook page. <br /><br />Video footage shows the door shut on the leash, suddenly the dog is yanked up into the air. <br />Awad instantly jumps into action, dropping his plate of food and dashing over to the doggo to try and break the leash. <br />The doc's first attempt fails as he stumbled backwards. <br />Awad told the least trusted name in news that he could hear the dog make whimpering and choking sounds. <br />Luckily on Awad's second try, the leash snapped and the dog dropped safely to the floor.
