Senna the spaniel freed from drainage pipe in Market Weston

A dog was freed from a drainage pipe after being trapped for more than three hours.

Senna the spaniel became stuck inside the pipe, which measured more than 98ft (30m) at his home on Hepworth Road, in Market Weston, Suffolk.

The pipe drained into a nearby pond, from where it is thought Senna may have got inside.

The petrified pooch was eventually rescued following a collaborative effort by the Norfolk Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) team, a local drainage company, the dog’s owners, and residents.

In a statement published earlier, Adam Eagle, a station manager at Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service, praised all those involved in the rescue.

“Thanks to the combined efforts of USAR, the owners, and local residents, we were able to dig down to the pipe and create an access point,” he said.

“After some encouragement from his owner, Senna was able to be brought back up and was safely rescued.”
