A Washington state couple was rescued Wednesday after they fell down a 60-foot embankment while trying to save their dog that fell from the same slope, authorities said.
Rescue crews were called out to the seaside embankment in Poulsbo after the husband and wife became stuck about halfway down the bluff, Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue said.
The couple had chased after their dog after the pup went over the embankment, rescuers said.
However, the dog did not survive the fall.

Rescuers rigged a pulley system to lower another rescuer down to the trapped husband and determine whether to hoist him up the slope or lower him down to the beach.
