Archie Bean’s harrowing ordeal left everyone absolutely shocked.
At only 12 weeks of age, this 5-pound Pekingese boi accidentally slipped through an uncovered vent in his family home in Douglas County, Colorado. As a result, he got trapped inside for three long hours.
Monique, his owner, desperately tried to rescue her dog, but it was almost impossible to even tell his exact location. That’s when she called South Metro Fire Rescue…
3-Hour Agony
After Monique’s plea for help, the first responders arrived. The amazing teams of the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office and Plumbline Services immediately initiated the rescue, but things were trickier than they thought.
It turns out Archie fell through the 3-story hole directly into the ductwork.
“I took the other dogs to go out, and so he jumped off my son’s bed and right into this hole, and my son said he could see him going like this and he tried to get him, but there’s a lot of nails and stuff,” Monique said in the rescue video posted by SMFR.
