PIP: A Diwali Rescue Story

PIP: A Diwali Rescue Story

Amongst the loud bangs and chaos of last night’s Diwali came a story of a little puppy so petrified she crawled into a 23 meter drain pipe rather than endure the pain she was suffering with the petrifying noises. Unfortunately for her the more scared she became the further she ventured until it became impossible for her to retreat. When Inspector Petros Simamane and Field Officer Philani Nzama were called to the scene early this morning, it became apparent they would need a camera to ascertain exactly how far she had gone in. Ganga Plumbers were only too happy to assist with their camera as soon as they realized a little puppy was in dire need of being rescued.

After over 4 hours of hard work, digging and sweat there was much to celebrate as the shivering little soul was finally retrieved by a tired but elated Inspectorate team. Once again, we would like to thank those that helped make this rescue possible and special mention to Ganga Plumbers for the use of the invaluable camera. Currently our little rescue is sleeping with a full tummy and wrapped safely in a fleece blanket. She is one of the fortunate one’s we were able to assist, but let us spare a thought to all those animals who last night spent the night petrified and frightened while people continued to ignore our pleas to refrain from loud fireworks.
