A dog named Simon was rescued in Murdoch Valley between Simonstown and Cape Point in the Table Mountain National Park in Cape Town.
Wilderness Search and Rescue (WSAR) responded to an activation call that the dog had become stuck under a rock in the area.
Multiple services including the City of Cape Town fire and rescue, the Cape Medical Response (CMR) and the National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) and the SPCA responded to the call where the medium sized dog became stuck under a huge rock after chasing a dassie.
WSAR reported that they used a ceiling hook to snatch the K9’s collar, whose name is Simon, who was then freed from the 3m deep opening.
