Bikers stop traffic to save panicked pooch on Brazilian highway

A group of bikers have banded together to stop traffic and save a runaway dog which was stuck on a highway in Brazil.

Footage uploaded to YouTube on March 8 shows a group of bikers stopping on a highway in Brazil and trying to corner the panicking dog.

The amusing situation, filmed with a helmet cam, shows the men running in circles before eventually capturing the pooch and handing it back to a woman wearing a white jumper.

It appears the dog may have jumped from her car.
