Dog's dramatic rescue after six days at bottom of Northland cliff
Hey Neighbours,
Archer the huntaway-cross dog was missing in Bland Bay, Whagaruru North for six days before his dramatic and heroic rescue.
The 12-year-old pooch had been missing in dense bushland at Bland Bay, Whangaruru North for six days after falling off a cliff. But all it took was one faint, exhausted bark and the week-long search mission turned into a rescue on Thursday.
The Gray family's lifelong friend and neighbour didn't give up hope, scaling the steep, dangerous part of the cliff in search of Archer. A kayaker and a boat then went to retrieve the injured pup from the bottom of the cliff.
He's now home safe and sound, albeit a little injured after trying to climb up the rock.
