NEED TO KNOW

A dog in San Francisco fell off a cliff while playing and spent 20 minutes clinging to a ledge before rescuers arrived

Firefighters and police officers used a “high-angle rigging system” to pull the 40-pound canine back up to safety

According to Rescue Captain Samuel Menchaca, the dog “knew he got rescued. He was wagging his tail. He was giving everyone kisses”

A dog was heroically rescued after falling off the side of a cliff.

While playing with another pup on Oct. 28, a brown and white dog slipped off an oceanside cliff at Fort Funston in San Francisco, which has steep bluffs that can drop up to 200 feet to the beach below. After landing on a narrow ledge, the canine waited there for around 20 minutes while authorities and rescue teams rushed to the scene.
