Youve heard of putting on the dog, but what about digging out one?
Thats what Olathe firefighters did Friday morning when they were called to help Olathe Animal Control rescue a dog that had burrowed under a familys concrete patio in the 11900 block of Cottonwood Drive.
In about 25 minutes, rescuers reached Sophie, a 2-year-old female Jack Russell terrier, by digging a small trench under the patio.
Its great to see that Sophie is OK and back with her family,” said Battalion Chief Ken Keiter.
