HAMPTON, Va. — A horse rescued from a mud pit in November by crews from Hampton and Suffolk, has made a full recovery and is "back to her sassy self," according to the Hampton fire chief.
A video posted to the WTKR News 3 Instagram, which showed Tango the horse's recovery from the muddy creek, has been viewed over 12 million times.
The first responders worked for hours to safely remove Tango from the creek.
Veterinarians on the scene provided first-aid to Tango, ensuring that she can safely be returned to her farm.
Weeks later, News 3 followed up with the crews that rescued Tango, who said she is "doing great and she was back with her equine friends in the paddock."
