Siberian Husky Rescued From Storm Drain

A Siberian husky in San Diego found herself in precarious situation this week.

On Thursday, Animal Services received a call that a dog was stuck in a storm drain at Woodrow Avenue and Viewcrest Drive in Encanto, according to county officials.

The pup, 1-year-old Bella, retreated further into the storm drain as animal control officers approached, forcing them to devise a new plan. Officers blocked the pipe, walked Bella through the drain to a grate and removed the grate. A Good Samaritan then lifted her to safety, according to officials.

Officials said Bella was microchipped and has been reunited with her owner. Itโ€™s still unclear how she ended up in the drain in the first place.
