Multiple outlets report that a small dog is rescued alive from rubble in Venezuela several days after the twin earthquakes. The dog was reportedly trapped beneath collapsed debris for about four to five days, after the earthquakes devastated parts of the country. Rescue teams locate the animal during a period of ongoing search and carefully clear rubble to avoid further collapse. CBS News and other reports describe video of the moment the dog is pulled from the rubble, with the animal appearing to respond to rescuers once freed. NDTV says rescuers detect a faint bark from beneath the debris and remove heavy slabs by hand. Other accounts describe the dog’s recovery and behavior immediately after the rescue, including licking a rescuer’s face. The reports also note the role of animal search efforts more broadly, with some coverage referencing the use of dogs to help find survivors in earthquake rubble. Overall, sources agree on the rescue’s timing (around four to five days after the quakes) and the basic details of how rescuers locate and free the dog.
