A horse found to be stuck in the mud of Dog River Saturday was rescued by the Mobile Fire-Rescue department and law enforcement officers after someone called 911.
According to a Facebook post from the Mobile Fire-Rescue Department, firefighters were called to Dog River at about 4:30 Saturday afternoon to help a horse named “Whiskey” that was stuck near the shoreline of the river.
A video posted on social media shows firefighters and police officers gently coax the horse from the mud and led the animal to firmer ground.
The post says the team used their technical rescue skills to help free Whiskey.
The whole process took about an hour.
No one knows exactly how long the horse had been stuck in the mud, but the post says the horse was able to walk back home to its yard.
