Following a doggedly determined effort lasting nearly 14 hours, Dan the coon-hunting dog was safely rescued in Morganton, NC yesterday, after he followed a raccoon into a drainage pipe and became hopelessly stuck. Sgt. Jeff Hibbard of Burke EMS and paramedic John Hood, took turns crawling 50 feet into the pipe toward Dan, finally managing to pull the dog out by his hindquarters. In The Morganton News-Herald.
