A pet chihuahua was rescued after getting stuck in her owner's bathroom sink.

Kim Gyeongmin was giving his beloved dog her weekly bath at their apartment in Bangkok, central Thailand on January 23.

The pooch, named Lucky accidentally, accidentally put one of her tiny paws through the narrow plug hold.

Kim and his girlfriend called the emergency serviced after they were unable to free their dog's back right leg.

Footage shows how one of the rescuers used pliers to pull out the metal plug hole cover and release the panicked pooch. Kim can be seen tenderly carrying the pup to help calm her down.

Volunteer workers took more than an hour to free the chihuahua.

Irada Bunchuay, Kim's girlfriend, said her dog was not injured and still had plenty of energy after the ordeal.

She said: "We called her lucky when he first came to stay with us and she is definitely very lucky.

''We are relieved that she can walk and run just as well as before after going through such a traumatic accident.''
