Dog rescue

On Monday May 27th, the Phoenix Fire Department Alarm Room called Technical Rescue Team E197 with an unusual request. 5 days prior Toby, a family dog, had gone missing. Hikers found Toby on top of a mountain injured, bitten, hungry and dehydrated. The owners, and a neighbor, could not recover their dog because of his size and the rough terrain. Without hesitation, the crew of E197 climbed the mountain with all their gear and were able to successfully treat and extract Toby, w...ho is at home today healing with his happy family.
A special thank you to Captain Ben Bernes, Firefighter Brad Wharton, Firefighter Marty Burdsal and Firefighter Patti Hoade for truly going above and beyond.
