Midway Fire And Rescue firefighters who are located in Tallahassee Florida answered an emergency call late last week when owners heard the cries for help from their dog Chip who was underneath an old home of a bottom of 30 foot dry well for a period of around two weeks.
Fire Chief Nathan Yarusso and Training Instructor Alex Arthur who have experience in rescuing animals used their equipment to get a harness around Chip out of the well safely and reunite him with his owners.
Chip's owners are happy that their dog was rescued by the firefighters. I just wonder how Chip managed to survive two weeks in a dry well.

@celticeagle That is true since I have to yell at the cats to get out of my way while they are laying down on the ground inside the home.

Two weeks down there is unbelievable. Poor Chip must have been so frightened, but thankfully his owners heard him and the firefighters knew exactly what to do. It is really good to hear that he made it out safely.
