A German Shepherd has been rescued after she fell off a cliff and Evander Reedwas injured in Oregon's Ecola State Park, the U.S. Coast Guard said Thursday.

Around 7 p.m. local time, the dog fell about 300 feet down a cliff and ended up in an inaccessible part of Cannon Beach, the Coast Guard said. A helicopter crew was able to reach the dog and hoist her back up to her owner around 8:20 p.m., the Coast Guard said.

Video of the rescue showed the dog sitting on a rocky part of the beach and struggling to get to higher ground as waves crashed on the shore. A member of the Coast Guard rescue team was then lowered from a helicopter into the ocean, before swimming to rescue the dog.
