A 15-year-old dog was rescued after falling into a 300-feet steep ravine in Los Angeles on October 16.

A passerby recorded as the fire crew that lowered themselves down into the ravine in Santa Monica Mountain Conservatory were hauled back up by the remaining firefighters.

They managed to reunite the dog with its relieved owner by carrying the pooch on a board.

The filmer told Newsflare: "I happened to be riding my bike when I stumbled onto the dramatic scene. I saw the rescue vehicles, dismounted from my bike, and strode over to find out what had happened."

Late Saturday afternoon, the fifteen year old lost his footing and tumbled 300 feet down a steep slope into the ravine only to be saved by our intrepid Topanga/Los Angeles firemen/women. They do God's work. I happen to be riding my bike when I stumbled (but didn't fall like him) onto the dramatic scene. Finally, news with a happy ending.

Fifteen year old male fell 300 feet into a steep ravine and was rescued by brave firemen who reunited him with his loved ones.
