Teamwork leads to rescue of dog in Ramsgate
He was later taken to a local vet for a full check-up.
A nerve-wracking rescue recently took place in Ramsgate after a dog got trapped beneath a car.
The dog had become wedged between the vehicle’s crossmember, stabiliser bar, engine mount and body, making it nearly impossible for bystanders to free him.
Despite multiple attempts using jacks and even a breakdown vehicle, the frightened animal couldn’t be moved.
“Our paramedic stepped in and carefully sedated the dog to calm him,” said Glen Preston of Med-Evac. “With patience and precision, we were able to gently manoeuvre his head through a narrow space near the engine mount, finally freeing him from danger.”
Apart from a few grazes, the lucky dog was in good spirits – standing, walking, drinking water, and happily wagging his tail shortly after being rescued.
He was later taken to a local vet for a full check-up.
Preston thanked everyone who stopped to help and showed compassion and teamwork in ensuring this story had a happy ending.
