A bitch about Brittany 7 years was found in a deep hole between 25 and 30 meters on Saturday in the town of Jumilla.
The area is known as "the mine" and there are many deep channels open to the outside near the Barranco de Villena, which is reached by road from Ardal.
The notice arrived at the animal shelter on Saturday late afternoon through a marriage that passed through the area and heard a distant barking.
As they approached the line heard in the distance "a desperate barking, as if asking for help."
Moved to place the agents of the Nature Conservation (SEPRONA) of Jumilla, which confirmed that it was a dog who almost certainly had been thrown into the vacuum, and members of animal protection in the locality .
Around six o'clock in the afternoon they sought help from the Emergency Coordination Center of the Region of Murcia 112 which, after several consultations, reported that they would not help the animal or to request the participation of firefighters to perform the rescue .
Since the animal protection organization want to stress that it is the first time that emergency relief denied care to an animal trapped in a case that also should investigate the matter to be a criminal offense.
But Paca, as has been renamed the female Breton who survived 7 years 5 to 6 days in the hole without food or water after the fall, according to reports estimate veterinarians, could again see the light thanks to the cooperation of citizens.
The SEPRONA and members of the protective group sought help from the Hinneni, a veteran association jumillana organized caving, hiking, mountaineering and climbing.
Several of its components and other ordinary citizens did not hesitate to come to the rescue and with his own material and human resources, end the suffering of the animal for days.
The dog is now recovering at the Animal Shelter Municipal Abandoned in Jumilla and its owner, found thanks to microchip the animal, is facing trial in the coming days for animal neglect and abuse, as it could have confessed that it was he himself who released the dog to get rid of it easily.

It is planned to request information from the City of Jumilla in the coming days to claim the seal of dangerous and abandoned channels of "mine".
They also want to report neglect and lack of support suffered by the Emergency Coordination Center of the Region of Murcia.
