Kimberly - A rescue operation is underway to save a dog that has fallen down the Big Hole in Kimberley, paramedics said on Friday.
ER24 spokesman Christo Venter said the dog had been in the hole for a couple of days already.
“The dog had been swimming around in an attempt to find a way out and fortunately found a ledge to rest at, which probably saved him thus far.”
Venter said rescue technicians had a difficult task in establishing firm ground to start the operation.
“With the 200m drop into the hole, it will take some time for the rescuers to reach the dog.”
