Alderney Fire Brigade bring stuck spaniel back to safety

Tuesday 01 October 2024


Molly the Cocker Spaniel needed rescuing after she found herself trapped on a ledge high above the ground inside Alderney's Mannez Quarry.

The pup was around 6-7 metres from the bottom of the cliff face when Alderney Fire Brigade reached her.

The crew deployed two ladders to rescue her, as well as a special dog harness.

Having been rescued from the edge, Molly was greeted by Alderney Animal Welfare Society Vet Nurse Tracey, who gave her a good check over before giving her the all clear.

The call out took around an hour from the call of the report, to post rescue cuddles with the crew.
