Dog Trapped For A Month Between Cement Blocks Is Rescued After Five-Day Mission

When a group of beachgoers heard faint whimpering noises from between the cracks of two giant cement blocks in Alexandria, Egypt, they knew they had to get closer.

What they discovered shocked them. There was a dog trapped below.

It could have ended tragically, as the poor dog had no access to food or water.

Not having the facilities to move the blocks, she continued to be cared for over the following month.

Eventually, the group got the attention of state agencies and sought help in freeing the dog.

With heavy machinery and automobiles, the rescuers toiled for five straight days in an attempt to rescue the street dog from her prison.

Finally, the trapped dog (who turned out to be a cute pup!) emerged safe and sound, and into the arms of her loving rescuers. They decided to name her Rook.
