The Municipality said the dog had been trapped on the roof of the Engineering Faculty Building of SU.

“It remains unclear exactly how the dog gained access to the roof, or for how long she was up there, but it is clear that she was trapped on the roof for quite some time,” said the Municipality. A photo was posted of the dog showing its ribs jutting out.

“She is currently in a stable condition and recovering at a safe foster home.”
