In the meantime, lower a long hose with a GoPro on the end into the hole to provide a stream of water and examine if the dog is hurt.
2. Ask the fire department for ideas?
Some ideas from a Reddit thread about getting a small object out of a deep hole [1]:
3. "Could a hose with vacuum pressure grab it?"
4. "Right now, we are thinking about making our own 20' version of the "grabeasy". Basically a long pole with bent wires coming out the end which will grab like a claw when you draw them in."
And from a pets.stackexchange thread about getting a cat out of a hole [2]:
5. "The safest interactive way for everyone is to use a live trap, and lower it down for the cat to go in and be lifted out."
