Miami Fire Rescue Saves Puppy Stuck in Drain

Miami Fire Rescue crews saved one lucky puppy who became stuck in a storm drain late Thursday night.

Two people were driving in the area of Northwest Second Court and 77th Street around 11 p.m Thursday when they say they heard the heartbreaking cries of an animal in distress, witnesses said.

They followed the sound, and spotted a small, black puppy soaking wet and stuck inside a storm drain desperately trying to climb out.

Miami Fire Rescue teams were called to the scene. They lowered a ladder into the drain and were able to retrieve the scared pup.

It was not immediately known how or why the puppy ended up in the drain.

A kind neighbor volunteered to take in the puppy and offered it food and a warm bath.
