Harford County first responders have rescued a St. Bernard that was trapped at the bottom of a well in Perryman.

Harford County Volunteer Fire & EMS spokesman Rich Gardiner said the technical rescue team was called just before 5 p.m. Sunday after the dog, Mabel, fell into a 30-foot deep dry well.

Fire crews were able to hoist Mabel out of the well by 6 p.m. Gardiner said Mabel wasn't seriously injured and was seen running in circles after she was rescued.

He said Mabel will be taken to a veterinarian to be checked out.
