Alve and his mother drove across the ice with a dog sled. The ice broke under Alve’s harness and he ended up in the cold water together with the draft dog Cáppis.
Cáppis managed to pull Alve out of the wake. “Seeing the dog pull Alve up was the most powerful thing I’ve seen,” says Alve’s mother Camilla Eklund Engvall, according to a press release.
