The Los Angeles Fire Department responded to get the pup to safety.
It took rescuers two hours to get the scene due of traffic, but Lucy was eventually rescued by a firefighter who was lowered into the well.
“It was successful and we pulled her out. She is likely to survive," a LAFD spokesperson told InsideEdition.com.
The department reminded pet owners to always keep their dogs on leashes.
