Blind dog rescued after being trapped in well for months

After months of living alone in a well, a blind, elderly dog has been rescued. "Surprisingly, the dog is in fairly good, physical condition," said Laura Simpson, founder of The Harmony Fund in Holden, Massachusetts.
"The blindness of course is from a pre-existing condition, but he's now in foster care and we’re hoping he can find a home there he’s loved and respected in the way he should be." Simpson said that it was last week when international animal rescuer Fahrudin Caki Bravo and his friend Ratko Koblar received word of a dog trapped in a well in Bosnia.
"The dog had been there for months and they don’t know if he was thrown in, or if he fell in," Simpson said. "We’re certainly hoping that he fell, but with the dog being completely blind, he was only kept alive because the local children were kind enough to feed him." "He [Bravo] and his friend thought it was perfectly feasible getting the dog out and they did a great job," she added. "They made it look easy."

Bravo and Koblar lifted the dog from the well, which was 8 meters (26 feet) deep, in just minutes, Simpson said. Following his rescue the dog received veterinary care and has been placed in foster care. Simpson added: "He is a very gentle dog with a very sweet, and forgiving disposition." The Harmony Fund is planning to send a special donation to Fahrudin and his small team so they can continue their good work in Bosnia.
