Terrified dog swallowed by 50ft sink hole miraculously saved by twist of fate

A terrified dog was swallowed by a 50ft sinkhole but miraculously survived after a passing walker heard its bark and called for help.

Gemma Lampard, 35, was walking her dogs when she heard the desperate yelp coming from the fenced-off sinkhole and 'went over to investigate.

She couldn't see the dog but she was concerned enough to call Kent Fire and Rescue, who arrived and launched a drone to see if they could spot the terrified pooch - before lowering a firefighter in to complete the rescue.
