Brave woman saves stray dog from bottom of 30-foot-deep well in India

  • 4 years ago
A brave woman from southern India rescued a dog on Thursday (January 30th) which was trapped at the bottom of a 30-foot-deep well.

A video of the rescue shows 40-year-old Rajni Shetty using a rope to descend the sheer walls of the water source in the Ballalbagh area of Mangaluru.

Shetty, who admitted later that she did not know how to swim, eventually manages to tie a second rope around the animal which is hauled to safety by locals at the top of the well.

Shetty then manages to climb out herself.

According to Shetty, the dog ran away immediately after the roughly 45-minute rescue operation.

Animal lover Shetty suffered a few cuts and bruises but said they were worth it to rescue an animal in distress.
