Romine said he tried using a 50-foot tow rope to reach the stranded canine, but it wasn't long enough.
Winterset police and fire departments soon arrived on the scene and scooted a rowboat across the ice to reach Sam in a rescue Romine caught on camera.
Sam was taken to Winterset Veterinary Center, where veterinarians were able to warm him up and reunite him with his owner.
