PORT ANGELES — Crews have rescued a partially blind dog that fell about 300 feet down a bluff near Port Angeles.
The Clallam County Sheriff’s Office says its search and rescue team responded Sunday night after a dog fell through thick brush in its backyard, which sits at the edge of bluffs.
Sgt. Randy Pieper says a rescuer was lowered on a rope about 300 feet down the bluff and crews helped pull the dog up. The dog was shaken but safe.
The Peninsula Daily News reports the dog belongs to the poet Tess Gallagher. She’s the widow of writer and poet Raymond Carver, who is buried Port Angeles.
