Leonardtown Volunteer Fire Department’s Squad 1 responded with five personnel around 3:00 p.m. and quickly located Murphy below the cliff. Firefighters safely retrieved the senior pup and returned him to his family without injury.
The crew capped the call with a birthday salute to Buck, the department’s oldest driving member.
