A man's best friend was reunited with his owner this past weekend.

A couple of Monmouth County sheriff's officers rescued Caiden, a 10-year-old Siberian Husky who was in distress after he swam around 1.5 miles into the bay off Union Beach, separating from his owner.

Once the officers located Caiden, they brought him on board, navigating shallow waters to reunite him with his owner.
