ROOSEVELT, Ariz. — An Arizona dog is safe and sound thanks to a helicopter ride and some Maricopa County Sheriff's Department deputies.

The MCSO Aviation Division responded to a call near Battleship Rock after a camper reported that their dog was seriously injured after a fall and could not walk.

The crew found the camper in a deep canyon and successfully hoisted the dog and his owner to safety. They used a special K9 rescue harness for the dog, and the brave pup was reunited with his owner.
