A woman who
fell from a cliff into the sea while trying to rescue her dog said Tuesday that
a pod of dolphins saved her life. According to Perth’s Channel 7 News, Karyn Gitsham was
walking her dogs on the beach at Carrickalinga, on South
Australia ’s Fleurieu
Peninsula
Ramsey, a
5-year-old Cocker Spaniel, ran into the water chasing seagulls, but began to
struggle against the tide and couldn’t make it back to shore. Gitsham followed
him along the shoreline, scrambling up a cliff face to keep him in sight.
Then, the
retired police officer lost her footing.
“I just
remember falling and I’m in the water and the waves were just pounding me up
against the rocks and I could see him out there trying to get back in,” she
said.
Dog and owner
struggled to stay afloat as help arrived from an unexpected quarter.
