There is no way to determine how long the small dog has been trapped in the open sewer in the middle of the woods in Kansas City, Missouri. But one thing is certain – she clung to dear life and surely held on to hope.
Luckily, a man who happened to be traveling within the area heard the young pup’s call for aid. The kind-hearted man knew he had to do something immediately. The exciting encounter that resulted in the rescue of the dog was caught on cam. KC Pet Project, a group known to help animals in need, said that the good Samaritan definitely was at the right place at the right time.
The man quickly requested assistance in bringing the terrified puppy to safety. Surprisingly, considering the ordeal she went through, the little puppy never became terribly hurt or injured. One of the puppy’s rescuers even said that it was understandable why the animal was terrified.
The rescuers brought with them a can of food and upon presenting this to the animal, she quickly warmed up to them. They soon saw that the animal did not have any broken bones despite falling 10 feet.
Thankfully, the adorable white puppy is now safe. The dog remains with the KC Pet Project while she regains health and energy.
As word spreads about her, the rescuers are hopeful that her family will come to find her. In the event that no one steps forward to claim her, though. She is eventually placed for adoption.
Not only do uncovered manholes represent a grave danger to animals, but also to humans. Any live creature may fall and be trapped inside. Hopefully, the problem has already been resolved by the authorities. After all, the dog would not have lasted any longer if her frantic and continuous barking had gone unheard.
