A Pennsylvania hiker had followed his dog off a mountain trail this week when he glanced toward a deep coal pit below and saw a tail move near a pile of rocks.Collin Leiby, an avid hiker and wedding photographer, locked eyes with the animal and knew it was Freddy, a 6-month-old golden retriever whose disappearance had sparked a weeklong search in Pottsville, a community in eastern Pennsylvania맥스카지노�s historic coal country. Leiby had been on alert for the missing dog and finally found him Monday on Sharp Mountain, about 10 feet down the coal pit, too weary to make his way out.Freddy the dog is rescued: Watch the report in the video above맥스카지노�A tear came to my eye,맥스카지노� said Leiby, 33, who lives a few blocks from the dog's home. 맥스카지노�I started calling his name. He slowly got up and started walking toward us.맥스카지노�Freddy made it partway up the icy side wall while Leiby reached down and grabbed him. He gave him water, clipped a spare leash on him and walked Freddy off the mountain alongside his dog, a pit bull mix named Bass.맥스카지노�He was crying and jumping on me,맥스카지노� Leiby said. 맥스카지노�He was like, 맥스카지노�Get me home.맥스카지노�맥스카지노�Pam and Joe Palko had pulled out all the stops since Freddy went missing on Feb. 17. They took to social media. They chased tips. They organized a posse of volunteers to distribute flyers in schools, churches and across town in Pottsville. They even hired a company that uses search dogs to track missing pets, and another that flew thermal drones overhead.That helped rule some places out. But there was still no sign of the 6-month-old puppy as the week wore on and temperatures dipped into the single digits in snow-covered Schuylkill County.맥스카지노�It was excessively cold,맥스카지노� said Pam Palko, a financial planner and mother of three. 맥스카지노�We knew we would never give up, but the more that time went on throughout the week, our hopes were getting smaller."They were chasing one of many false alarms at a nearby animal shelter just before dusk Monday when Joe Palko got an alert from their home security camera. A stranger was at the door with Freddy. Then their neighbor called. They raced home.맥스카지노�He just was a little frantic, hungry and confused,맥스카지노� said the neighbor, Dr. Carolyn Canizaro-Orlowsky, a retired veterinarian. 맥스카지노�When they showed up, he started wiggling."The Palkos, whose children are 17, 20 and 22, had been especially heartsick after losing a beloved 4-year-old dog last year to cancer. They had gotten Freddy not only for themselves, but to give their other golden retriever, 2-year-old Harper, a new companion.Freddy, who had weighed about 45 pounds, lost at least 10 pounds from the ordeal, and is a little the worse for wear, but otherwise healthy. The Palkos are grateful for that, and for the community that went to such lengths to reunite them.맥스카지노�There's a big collective sigh of relief," said Canizaro-Orlowsky. 맥스카지노�It's a neat lesson not to give up.맥스카지노�
