A female dog was rescued today after she fell into a 30-foot well today in the Santa Monica mountains in Malibu.
Lucy, a 13-year-old Welsh Terrier, fell into the dirt well near the
27200 block of Winding Way about 11:45 a.m., according to fire department
spokesman Brian Jordan.
The department dispatch its Urban Search and Rescue team to the scene
but it took them about two hours to get there because of traffic, Jordan said.
The county fire team then lowered one firefighter down into the well to
make the rescue, Jordan said.
Firefighter Matt Walmsley, who pulled Lucy to safety, told ABC7, ”They
lowered me down into the well. I put a strap around the dog and then they
(firefighters) pulled us up.”
The entire operation was finished about 5 p.m., according to county fire
Dispatch Supervisor Cheryl Sims.
The department warned pet owners to keep their dogs on a leash when they
are hiking on trails through the mountains.
