JAMUL, Calif.—Emergency crews and animal-welfare workers April 17 rescued a horse that tumbled about 100 feet down a steep slope in the eastern San Diego County back country, and then had to spend the night injured in a remote ravine.

Eight-year-old Dobby slipped and fell off a trail near state Route 94 and Honey Springs Road shortly after 6 p.m. Sunday as his owner’s daughter was riding him with a group of companions aboard horses and a mule in the Hollenbeck Canyon area of Jamul, according to Cal Fire and the San Diego Humane Society.
