Another dog

Another two call outs for the team today and again one included a dog which had fallen from cliffs.

A passing motorboat had spotted the dog at the base of cliffs down towards Dancing Ledge. The IRT was tasked to investigate and discovered a note close to the top of the cliff from the owner saying they had lost the dog this morning!

Swanage ILB recovered the dog whilst the IRT made enquiries about the owner and thankfully owner and dog were reunited. (the dog appeared ok despite the fall)

Please, if you lose your dog close to the cliffs please let the Coastguard know. It can save time and its much safer for us to check with our equipment than risk your own life.
