Firefighters pulled a dog that went missing nearly two weeks ago over the Fourth of July holiday from San Francisco Bay. <\/p>\n
Menlo Park firefighters said they got a call over the weekend from a worried resident who saw a pup swimming out into the bay. <\/p>\n
It was an all-hands-on-deck mission, according to a Facebook post published Saturday by the Menlo Park Fire Protection District.<\/p>\n
The dog, the department wrote in a post, \u201cjust kept swimming.\u201d<\/p>\n
With the help of a drone, firefighters say they were able to locate the tiny pup. <\/p>\n
The East Palo Alto Police Department posted a separate video from the rescue that shows the dog swimming furiously with seagulls circling overhead and firefighters scooping him out of the murky water and swaddling him in towels. <\/p>\n
\u201cTiny dog escapes marsh, survives aerial assault by an organized gang of seagulls, and is rescued by the Menlo Park Fire Department,\u201d East Palo Alto police wrote. \u201c12\/10 action movie.\u201d<\/p>\n
The fire department said it turned over the dog to the SPCA, which reunited the dog with its owners. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Firefighters pulled a dog that went missing nearly two weeks ago over the Fourth of July holiday from…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":404543,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[162286,7,9,8,2899,13480,4330,6277,154310,162284,162285,162283,36314,1914,595,162282,162287,430],"class_list":["post-404542","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-california","tag-aerial-assault","tag-california","tag-california-headlines","tag-california-news","tag-dog","tag-facebook-post","tag-firefighter","tag-fourth","tag-july-holiday","tag-marsh","tag-organized-gang","tag-overhead","tag-pup","tag-san-francisco-bay","tag-saturday","tag-seagull","tag-separate-video","tag-week"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/404542","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=404542"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/404542\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/404543"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=404542"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=404542"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=404542"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
