“Oh my baby! My baby!” the owner cried.

A black Labrador retriever was rescued from the rubble of Seattle house six days after the home collapsed amid a landslide. 

“Oh my baby! My baby!” owner Didi Fritts exclaimed in a video of her dog, Sammy’s, rescue on Thursday. 

According to KING 5, neighbors heard whimpers from the rubble on Thursday and contacted the fire department. 

“Because of the landslide that happened last week it is not safe to enter the home so we are exercising extreme caution with our crews,” Seattle Fire Department Public Information Officer David Cuerpo told the outlet.

Veterinarians were on the scene to evaluate Sammy, who was deemed to be in stable condition.
