Four years ago, Colorado hiker Zak Anderegg came across a sad scene while exploring an Arizona canyon.
After repelling 350 feet down into the heart of the gorge he found an abandoned puppy, rail thin and starving.
To the rescue: Mr Anderegg returned the next day and repelled back into the canyon to rescue Riley armed with a dog crate
Resting: Mr Anderegg then took Riley to an animal hospital to regain his strength and health.
Thanks to Mr Anderegg’s quick work, the dog named Riley survived and found a new, loving, home with his rescuer.
‘He has become a cherished member of our family,’ Mr Anderegg wrote on Riley’s Facebook fan page. ‘He is without doubt one of the sweetest dogs I’ve ever known.’
