Hikers Hear A Dog Crying And Hurry To The Scene - They Save A Dog That’s Been Stranded For Six Weeks
Chloe, a 14-year-old dog, vanished during a hike in Colorado and ended up stranded on a mountain for six long weeks. Her family searched and searched, but every trail led nowhere, and the situation only got more heartbreaking with time.
Then a stranger heard faint cries on Mount Bross and decided to investigate. With her partner, Trinity Nichols went back up the mountain, kept calling, and finally found Chloe alive, though badly worn down by the ordeal.
What happened next turned a desperate search into a rescue story people could not stop sharing.
Chloe was on a hiking trip with her family when she got separated from them while following their other pet. He managed to return to the family, but Chloe didn't.
“We got her!!!!” she wrote to the group. When they found her, Trinity made a post on Facebook. “Sean Nichols and I finally took this sweet, fearful, hungry dog down to security after hours and hours of screaming and climbing. For over a month, the poor dog had been stranded on the top of the mountain.
Chloe’s owners waited anxiously after returning down with her to see whether this was their dog, which had been missing for six weeks and had escaped with another neighborhood dog.
They believed their 13-year-old pooch was gone for good after a month of searching.”
The family had searched for her, but eventually, they gave up, fearing the worst. Several weeks after the event, a group of hikers shared a post on Facebook about hearing a dog moaning in the mountains. That was a sign for Trinity. She decided to go and investigate with her partner, and they found the poor dog.
“We eventually carried this poor baby directly to security after reports of a pet dog wailing and two days of rushing beside a 14er,” she added. “This unfortunate creature had been stuck on a precipice for more than a month. She used to be a 90-pound dog who now weighs 26 pounds. We’re relieved to get her down from the mountain and back with her owners!”
Watch Chloe's rescue on video here:
Chloe's owner told 9NEWS that their dog is recovering but will need more time to heal from this terrifying incident. Thanks to a woman who wouldn't give up, this dog got a second chance.
We hope that, with her family's help, Chloe will recuperate and be her cheerful old self again.
Chloe's rescue is the kind of story that sticks with you.
