It's not just humans that are struggling with the polar vortex that is swirling across the US this week.

A dog in Indiana was found frozen to the ground in sub-zero temperatures.

The Sheltie mix named Peanut was found late Monday night after an anonymous caller tipped off sheriff's deputies in Jasper, Ind.

Rescuers had to pour warm water of the dog to free him from the icy grip.

Peanut and another dog rescued from the home are expected to make a full recovery.
