Dog rescued from window ledge London Fire Brigade. “When we arrived at the house, we initially requested the support of the RSPCA and a Metropolitan Police dog handler, but we could see the dog was whimpering, and we were worried it was going to fall because the ledge was so narrow and it couldn’t turn around to get back inside,” said leading firefighter Dan Poullais in a press release shared London Fire Brigade. He further added, “Rather than using one of our standard ladders, we thought the safest option would be to get our 32-metre turntable ladder to the scene so that we could bring the dog safely inside the ladder’s cage. Leading Firefighter Nick Michael, who loves dogs, went up the ladder to complete the rescue armed with some dog treats that had been given neighbours. He managed to get a collar and lead onto the dog and safely brought it down to the ground, where it began to calm down.” (Also Read: Limping dog tied to a pole, saved animal rescue team) London Fire Brigade also added that this incident occurred when the pet owners were not at home. Upon their return, the dog was safely handed back to them. A London Fire Brigade spokesperson said in the press release, “Firefighters love animals, and we are ready, willing, and able to ass dressed or injured animals – the last thing we want is for people to put themselves at risk rescuing an animal themselves – but we do encourage people to call the RSPCA in the first instance, and we will ass if our special equipment is required, as in this case.” “Exciting news!
