SAN DIEGO — Hobo, a deaf 8-year-old Australian Shepherd, is going to be kept on a very short leash from now on after surviving a 100 foot fall and an hourslong rescue to save his life.
The elderly dog was out on a walk with owner Julia Plant near his family’s property in Sorrento, California, at around 2 p.m. on Monday afternoon, Plant told ABC News’ San Diego affiliate KGTV in an interview, when he suddenly saw something and darted toward it.
Hobo ended up falling approximately 100 feet down a steep hill and into a ravine down below, according to a statement from the San Diego Humane Society, who spearheaded Hobo’s rescue after receiving a call for help from Plant when she realized there was no way she could traverse the terrain to rescue the dog herself.
Members of the ERT Technical Response Unit immediately rushed to the scene for support and set up safety lines so that they could rappel down the steep terrain to rescue the elderly animal.
