0:45Now PlayingA rescue dog terrified of water has become a deep-sea diver and allegedly beat the Guinness World Record for canine diving.
Bjorn Schembri, 35, from Malta, had an immediate connection with Misa when he visited his local animal rescue shelter in search of a four-legged companion.
“I didn’t choose Misa. She chose me. She didn’t want to leave me,” Schembri told Caters.
But he noticed an issue when he took her to the ocean — one of his favorite spots — to play around.
“I was carrying her myself when I first took her to the sea. She scratched all over my body she didn’t want to touch the seawater. She was so afraid,” he remembered.
He knew that this wouldn’t work well living on an island country in the Mediterranean Sea and became determined to help Misa conquer her fear.
