Fire crews rescue dog and owner on the ice

Tuesday, 8 April 2025 13:25

Four stations responded to reports of a dog and its owner stuck on the ice

A dog and its owner are safe but cold after a rescue on Leonard Lake near Milford Bay in Muskoka Lakes yesterday.

Fire crews from four Muskoka Lakes stations were called after a dog wandered onto the ice, drawn by a frozen deer carcass. When the dog got into trouble, the owner went out to help — and also became stranded.

Thankfully, firefighters brought both back to shore safely.

The Muskoka Lakes Fire Department is reminding residents that no ice is safe ice, and to keep pets close — never attempt a rescue on the ice yourself.
