Puppy Rescued From Deep, Water-Filled Hole – With A Snake – Under A House
May 5, 2022
Escambia County firefighters rescued a puppy trapped in a deep, water-filled hole — with a snake — under a house in Byrneville Thursday afternoon.
The puppy, named Bailey, was discovered in a hole that was about four feet deep and located several feet under a house on Creamer Road in Byrneville. Only the puppy’s nose, mouth and one paw were above water in the hole. And there was a non-poisonous garter snake also in the hole.
Firefighters from Escambia County Fire Rescue’s Engine 519 in Century and Century volunteers responded. Due to the estimated one hour drive time from the animal shelter on Fairfield Drive to Byrneville, firefighters moved forward with the rescue rather than waiting for Escambia County Animal Control to arrive.
ECFR Lt. Scott Hunsucker was able to reach into the hole and use a broomstick to get a rope around the puppy.
Residents believe Bailey was the hole for several hours before she was discovered.
Using a special mask, oxygen was administered to the cold, shivering puppy and she was wrapped in a blanket before being reunited with her family.
Bailey is expected to make a complete recovery.

Several Pets Shot With Arrows Across Atmore
April 30, 2022
Several pets, mostly cats, have been shot with arrows in the past several days across Atmore.
Milo Rae, a black and white cat, was shot on Fernway Drive.
“My 3- year old niece was playing outside with my great-aunt when their missing cat wandered up to them and had been shot through the head with an arrow,” Taylor Ware told NorthEscambia.com about Milo Rae. They were forced to put the cat down.
Atmore Police said the pet shootings have occurred across town — on Fernway Drive, Fridge Drive off McRae Street, the Rockaway Creek Road area, and on Swift Street.
Ware asked, “If it’s happening to pets like sport, how long is it until it moves on to children?”
Anyone with information is asked to call Atmore Animal Control at (251) 368-0859 or the Atmore Police Department at (251) 368-9141.
