Drone & First Responders Rescue a Dog from the San Francisco Bay - Zack's Good News

On the Fourth of July, near San Francisco, a small dog named Prieta was spooked by the noise from fireworks and escaped her family home. Since then, the family had been worried about finding their pup. Last week, there was a break in the case. Someone in the San Francisco Bay area called 911 to report that a small dog had run into the bay and "just kept swimming." Firefighters responded to the call. They used a drone to locate the dog. They then launched a boat into the Bay — and plucked the dog out of the water. Sure enough. It was Prieta. The Fire Department connected Prieta with her family and shared the story of her rescue and return on social media. The fire department wrote, “Firefighter Tyler, who scooped up Prieta from the Bay in one perfectly timed move, was able to see her dry and much happier now in her owner’s arms. Prieta’s owner was emotional as she expressed her gratitude to all the rescuers who helped bring her beloved dog home after an especially difficult time in her life.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
