A beagle was stuck at the bottom of a York County well for almost an hour Wednesday before Lesslie firefighters freed her.
The beagle was at the bottom of a roughly 25-foot well that was only about 8 inches in diameter, Lesslie Fire Chief Tommy White said.
White said the person who called the department, a neighbor, heard a dog whining before they found the old well near Collins Road and Hall Spencer Road in York County. “Luckily it was dry,” White said. “But she was down in the bottom of it.”
And the well was too skinny for anyone to reach the dog, White said.
“We were able to think outside the box a little bit and come up with a plan,” he said.
