A dog was obviously happy to be back on dry land -- thanks to McKinney firefighters. 

Crews handled several calls for assistance after heavy rain caused flooding conditions in the area Thursday, WFAA reported. 

One call involved three people and a dog trapped under a bridge.

Using a pully and ropes as well as an aerial ladder truck, they were hoisted out of harm's way.
