Golden Retriever Honey turns 'jet black' after manhole mishap

A beloved pooch called Honey got herself into a sticky situation when she fell down a deep manhole and had to be freed by fire crews. The six-year-old Golden Retriever was left 'jet black' with dirt after she fell into the storm drain.

She took the tumble while on a walk with her owner Kathleen, 82, and her other dog Jack on Monday, June 26. Kathleen noticed she was missing before hearing her bark from inside the manhole and she called fire crews to come to her aid.

A firefighter went down into the manhole to rescue the stricken dog. Honey and Kathleen paid her saviours a visit to thank them for their help after the incident in Scunthorpe, Lincolnshire.
