RANCHO CORDOVA, Calif. (CBS13) – Firefighters successfully pulled a small dog out of the drain he was trapped in for as long as three days.

Owner Joseph Hernandez said he frantically began searching for his miniature Schnauzer, named Casper, when the dog vanished after being let out onto his home’s lawn.

Neighbors joined the search but had little success, at least until Patty Monk walked her dog Rowdy past a storm drain.

Rowdy began barking, and Patty heard another dog responding from inside an eight-inch pipe.

8. I worry about storm drains too

I have a cat whose extreme curiosity gets him into trouble regularly. He is fascinated by the storm drain on my street and many times I have seen him leaning far into it looking to see if there is anything interesting at the bottom. This terrifies me. Whenever he fails to come home on schedule that's the first place I check.
