Trapped Dog Rescued By HFPD
By Joyce Liput
"The doggie in the well, The doggie in the well. Hi, ho, the dairy-o The doggie in the well."
It wasn't exactly a well, it was an old cistern, and my dog fell through the old cover. What do you do when you look down a six foot hole and see your dog swimming around helplessly in sewer water? PANIC!!! My son lowered a 6-foot ladder down so the dog could hang on to the bottom rung while he held on to the top rung. Now what?
Well, "911" is for emergencies, and this was definitely an emergency.
Huntley Fire Chief Dave Veath and fireman John
Winkelman showed up to assess the situation. They could have said, "That's not our job; it's not our department," but they didn't. While I ran around calling the vet, animal control, and collecting towels and blankets, ladders and ropes, they worked out a plan. One guy was lowered, head first, until he could put a belt around the dog. When reinforcements arrived, the rescue crew pulled the dog up.
After visions of our dog drowning while we watched, here she was, safely wrapped in the towels. According to Chief Veath, "In my 15 years on the force, we've never had

Two baths later "Sniffy" looked better, and smelled better. She even managed to snarf down a few doggie biscuits. For us, there are still heroes in this world, and they live in Huntley.
Huntley Firefighters Plan Rll The Boot Campaign
For several years. Huntley firefighters have held the "Fill the Boot" campaign. On Friday afternoon. May 6 and Saturday morning. May 7. Huntley firefighters will be at the Huntley Supermarket. State Bank of Huntley and Union Special Plaza asking the public lo drop a donation in their boots. Donations will
also be accepted at the fire station on Coral St.
All proceeds will be used to help send children to a special camp for young burn victims. Burn Camp provides the setting for burn survivors to share their common experiences while being able to play and not feel self conscious about what others
may be thinking of their scars. Several Huntley firefighters will also be helping set up and operate the camp this summer.
Look for the firefighters in the red vest that say "Help Burned Kids" and give generously. Make this a time to remember for these youthful victims.
