WAPELLO COUNTY, Iowa —

First responders in Wapello County jumped into action Tuesday after a dog fell through a partially frozen pond.

Photos of the rescue were posted to the Wapello County sheriff's Office Facebook page. This content is imported from Facebook. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site.
