Two Terrified Pups Rescued From An Underground Pipe 3 Days After Being Trapped

In Fallbrook, California two dogs, a five-year old and a two-year old – both Labrador retrievers somehow managed to get stuck in an underground pipe!

Luckily for the dogs, a man heard them crying while he was tending to an avocado and orange grove. Laurie Joniaux, the County Animal Services Director, said that they believe the dogs had been trapped in the pipe for three days! The man recalls hearing some whimpering several days before he heard them crying.

They had to dig and cut away sections of the pipe to get the dogs out. The dogs are both safe and recovering at a Carlsbad County Animal Services location. Joniaux said it was quite remarkable that both dogs had fared so well being underground for so long. Officials believe the dogs fell into the pipe near an opening that is on top of a hill.
