When a natural disaster hits, beloved pets and animals can face unimaginable danger after being abandoned or split apart from their owners. Non-profit group Animal Rescue Rigs is passionate about this cause and was created to ensure that furry friends are never left stranded. Nissan recently partnered with the organization to build a specialty vehicle designed for deep waters and tough terrain, called â€œPaws One.â€ The truck is currently on display at the Nissan booth at the 2018 SEMA Show in Las Vegas.

Paws One was built using a Titan XD PRO-4X gas truck as its base, which is designed for off-roading in its stock form. A Rough Country six-inch lift kit was added for better ground clearance and a military-grade Zodiac life raft was attached to the top to be used in critical search and rescue operations.

Stock wheels were also replaced with 37-inch Nexen MTX mud terrain tires attached to 18-inch TSW Black Rhino C.O.G. wheels. The Moose Knuckle Sandwich bumper by Hard Notch Customs replaces the stock setup and a 12,000-lb Smittybilt winch was added to remove debris or to help pull the truck out of tough situations. Bushwacker fender flares top off the truckâ€™s exterior modifications.

Paws One is currently slated for deployment under the name Paws Two in 2019. Once in service, the truck will be operated by highly skilled search and rescue staff, along with experts trained to operate specialized vehicles.
