A woman in Monroeville, PA, tried to rescue a stray Pit Bull on Parkway East, but the frightened dog jumped off a 200-foot overpass. Woodland Hills EMS responded, expecting the worst, but found the dog—later named Ophelia—alive but badly injured. The crew paid $720 for emergency care and moved her to a specialty hospital, where she was treated for broken bones and internal injuries.

With medical costs estimated over $8,000, the crew launched a GoFundMe that quickly surpassed $10,000. Ophelia will need surgery and ongoing care; any extra funds will go to a shelter. If her owner isn’t found, EMS members hope to adopt her. The crew, usually helping people, was touched to help an animal in need.
