Whimpering dog trapped 20ft down sewer for 48 HOURS is finally pulled to safety by team of rescuers

  • Team of rescuers in Maharashtra, India spent half an hour rescuing the stuck dog
  • Video shows a young boy leading the rescuers to a well-like structure in bushes
  • Rescuers, led by Abhijit Mahale, used a control pole to retrieve the fallen animal  

This is the moment a two-year-old stray dog that fell 20ft down a sewer was pulled to safety after 48 hours stuck in the darkness. 

The distressed animal was found by a young boy stuck in a well surrounded by thick vegetation in Nashik, Maharashtra in India on November 24. 

Video shows the boy, who first heard the whimpers of the animal in distress and informed the rescuers, making his way through a clump of trees and pointing at the deep hole which appears to be a sewage shaft.

Wasting no time, the team of rescuers led by Abhijit Mahale, lower the animal control pole to get a grip on the dog

The rescuers are shocked to see a forlorn dog stuck in there. The dog appears frail and exhausted as it was in the hole for two days without any food.

Wasting no time, the team of rescuers led by Abhijit Mahale, lower the animal control pole to get a grip on the dog.

They struggle to get the wire around the dog, but eventually manage to get a grip of its leg and hoist the distressed animal up through the well shaft.  

The dog immediately collapses on the ground from exhaustion and hunger, and the rescuers quickly throw some biscuits its way. 

It gobbles them up, appearing to regain its strength now free from the confines of the well. The rescue took around 30 minutes to complete.
