RESCUETECH and Netcare 911 responded to a call for help via the START Network for a stranded dog found at the bottom of a steep, walled embankment in Pinetown.
Members from both organisations were dispatched and, when they arrived at the scene, a member of the public had used a ladder to reach the dog.
