Dog Trapped In Letchworth Gorge Rescued

It was a close call for an 18-month old beagle named Jossie on Thursday morning.

According to WIVB, New York State Park Police responded to reports of a dog trapped in the Letchworth gorge.

The dog was trapped in a very dangerous area of the gorge, where it exceeds 400 feet in depth, with a mixture of "sheer cliffs and steep wooded slopes."

"With the State Park Police High Angle Rescue Team, as well as a river rescue team from Adventure Calls Rafting on standby, officers set up several observation and calling points, while also utilizing the division’s drone for flight aerial views."

I've been to that area and it is extremely dangerous. Very relieved Jossie was able to be rescued from harm's way.
