When the Fire Brigade or the RSPCA can’t help who do you call? – Dyno Rod of course!

Yesterday Dyno-Rod (BC Services) took a call from a very distressed lady from North London saying “Please help me, I don’t know what to do, the fire brigade are here and they can’t do it”.

The call was taken by Emma in BC Services Wembley offices who calmed the lady down and managed to establish that a week old puppy had accidentally been flushed down the toilet and was now stuck in the drains.

The Fire Brigade and the RSPCA had been on site for around 3 hours but they could not rescue the tiny puppy so of course the next thing to do was to call Dyno Rod for help.

Local Dyno Rod Operations Manager, Mark, soon took charge of the rescue operation. Quick thinking Mark, suggested that Dyno Rods CCTV technology could be used to find out exactly where the puppy was stuck within the drainage system and that the neighbours needed to be told not to flush any toilets to ensure the puppy wasn’t flushed into the main sewer. “The lady was very concerned” said Mark “she was worried about the puppy and about the cost of the rescue”. Mark was able to reassure her that there would not be a charge from Dyno Rod. “All we were concerned about was getting the puppy out alive” he added.

Dyno-Rod engineer Will Craig was at the scene a few minutes later to put the plan into action. CCTV was used to find the puppy and then the equipment was used to gently push him through the drainage system to the next manhole where a fireman was waiting to rescue him.

The puppy has now been checked over by the local vet and remarkably is unhurt and recovering well. As a tribute to the rescue team he has been named Dyno!
