A nearly 50kg dog couldn’t descend a mountain. Volunteers carried her

A man named Kevin Matthews was hiking with his large dog, Sable, on the Golden Eagle Trail in Pennsylvania when the dog became too exhausted to continue. Despite Sable's usual stamina for long hikes, she struggled during this particular trek and could not descend the mountain. Matthews attempted to encourage her and kept her in place while he sought help. After reaching the road, he contacted local volunteers from the Waterville Volunteer Fire Company, who joined him on the trail to rescue Sable. Using a stretcher designed for humans, the group carefully transported the dog down the mountain over several hours. The effort was successful, and Sable was safely brought back to the bottom of the mountain, much to Matthews' relief.
