Oreo, out on a walk with her owner, fell about 40-feet down the cliff face. Sonoma sheriff's deputies, who weren't able to convince Oreo to climb back up, decided to bring in their Henry-1 helicopter to rescue her.

Todd Rollings, of the Bodega Bay Fire Protection District, told the Press-Democrat. Deputy Henri Boustany tied himself to a 100-foot line off the helicopter and descended the cliff face to pick up Oreo, who carried him to safety. “The dog and I got to know each other real quick,” Boustany said. “I think the dog just wanted to be out of there.” [CBS SF, Press-Democrat] Read More Python eats dog in Australian backyard School closed due to damage from deer, dogs Military helicopter landing shocks London park visitors Dog, adopted two weeks earlier, notices gas leak, saves family
