The search teams, including police and SES volunteers, were alerted by Jess’s barking, which led them to Patricia in a creek not far from her home. She had last been seen on Friday, walking her dog, and the search intensified over the weekend as temperatures soared above 30°C.
When rescuers reached her, Patricia was dehydrated but alive. They quickly took her to safety, where paramedics assessed her condition. Jess, her loyal companion, was also taken to a vet for a check-up.
Inspector Erica Silwood from the Armadale District Office called it a miracle, especially given the heat and Patricia’s age. Her family was overjoyed to hear she was found safe, and her neighbor expressed relief, saying they were all scared about what they might find.
Everyone involved was just so grateful for the outcome, and it’s a reminder of the bond between pets and their owners. What a heartwarming story!
