CLACKAMAS, Ore. (AP) - Oregon authorities says two Golden Retrievers swept 175 feet down a cliff in a landslide survived their tumble to the edge of the Clackamas River.
A Clackamas County sheriff's spokesman says rescuers from the sheriff's Marine Patrol and a local fire district were able to retrieve 8-year-old George and 10-year-old Doug after their Wednesday afternoon fall down an 80-degree slope.
Their owner, John Grady, was working on a fence at his Eagle Creek property when he saw the dogs wander out onto an unstable overhang that collapsed.
Grady's 20-year-old neighbor, Dustin Shatner, climbed down the cliff to help the dogs. Rescuers picked him up as well.
