Pooch in a pouch

4 September 2012: An unfortunate dog, which had fallen to the bottom of cliffs at Salton Bay, was rescued by St Bees inshore lifeboat. Crew Member Dale Rockery swam ashore to retrieve the frightened pet from a rocky ledge, returning it to the lifeboat in a casualty pouch. The dog was then taken back to the station for a check-up by the local dog warden.
