THORNTON, N.H. (WHDH) - Crews rescued a Saint Bernard who slid down a 20-foot embankment and could not get back up in Thornton, New Hampshire Monday night.

Campton-Thornton fire personnel responding to Snowood Drive for an animal rescue found the 145-pound dog named Fudge at the bottom of the embankment.

They used a stokes basket and a safety rope system to get Fudge back to safety.

Authorities say the dog did not suffer any injuries.
