Originally Published 2 years ago — by OregonLive
A 3-year-old golden retriever named Leo survived a 300-foot fall off a cliff at Ecola State Park near Cannon Beach, Oregon, prompting the first U.S. Coast Guard rescue of 2024 in the state. The dog was airlifted to safety by a helicopter crew and later received medical treatment for serious injuries, including a broken jaw and bruised body. The owners, who have since started a GoFundMe page to cover medical expenses, expressed their gratitude to the first responders and learned a valuable lesson about keeping pets on a leash.
