Watch: Sushi, the Labrador rescued from drainpipe after being trapped for hours

A beautiful black labrador named Sushi was recently rescued after being trapped in an underground drainpipe in Fairlands, Johannesburg.

AFTER NINE HOURS SUSHI WAS SUCCESSFULLY RESCUED

According to SCP Security, 14-year-old Sushi fell into the drain on Kessel Str, Fairland, on Thursday.

A member of the Fire Ops SA, Pako was lowered head-first into the pipe. He then crawled underground until he reached the dog.

“Pako spent approximately an hour underground, coming back up to excavate soil that was blocking the pipe and going back in until he reached Sushi, who was then brought up to safety,” Lieutenant Warren Bronner said.
