Dramatic video shows Coast Guard rescue Leo the Golden Retriever

The US Coast Guard made a daring rescue to airlift a Golden Retriever to safety on New Year’s Day after he plunged more than 300 feet over a sharp cliff — the second incident of its kind at the Oregon state park in just seven months. Leo had been bounding ahead of his two owners and their other pup at Ecola State Park around 2:45 p.m. when he toppled over the ledge onto the rocky shores of Cannon Beach below. The drop — the height of the Statue of Liberty — is only accessible by repelling down from a hiking trail.
