Terrified Tina Hangs Onto Balcony For Dear Life, Her Little Paws Slipping…

Our furry little friends can find themselves in precarious situations in an instant.

Often, it’s nothing more than a humorous aside that can be brushed aside as no big deal, but there are times when the situation is a legitimate matter of life and death.

That’s what happened to this adorable Shih Tzu named Tina, who was home with her her owner in Goiânia, Brazil.

Her owner stepped out to the store for just a minute, and that’s when trouble ensued.

Some fireworks were set off nearby, and that scared the daylights out of poor Tina!

That’s a pretty common reaction from our four-legged friends when it comes to loud noises and unsurprisingly, her first instinct was to run and hide.  

She did just that, but she wound up getting herself into an incredibly dangerous situation…

Tina shimmied herself onto the balcony, and she ended up getting in between the railing and nearly tumbling over!

The poor pup was clinging on for dear life, but thankfully some kind neighbors got wind of what has happening and sprang into action.

They quickly grabbed a blanket and ran under the balcony.

It took a whole lot of coaxing, but they were eventually able to get Tina to drop down to safety.

The whole amazing scene was captured on video which you can see below.

And the reaction from Tina when she returns to the loving arms of her owner is nothing short of priceless!

She’s safe and happy now, and here’s hoping the next time she hears fireworks, she knows enough to avoid the perilous balcony.

There might not always be kind-hearted people below with a safety net…
