Bogi is a one year old Springer Spaniel who was out on a walk with his owner Julian Stanke on the Superior Hiking trail on Sunday when he got off his leash and took off. Stanke and his girlfriend spent hours looking for him and when they finally found him he was out of reach on a ledge 30 feet below them.
They had no idea how they would be bale to safely rescue Bogi so they turned to the Superior Hiking Trail Facebook page to ask for help. As night fall fell they made the heartbreaking decision to head home for the night hoping Bogi would stay put and try to rescue him the next day.
