Lost dog saved from hole in cliff thanks to sausage roll

A missing dog was lured back to safety with a trusty sausage roll after he fell down a cliff.

Henry’s owners feared the worst when he got lost in undergrowth on the coastal path near Boscastle, Cornwall, on Friday. A search party combed the jagged cliffs along the Strangles beach using drones for two hours, but there was still no sign of him.

The beloved pet was presumed dead and his heartbroken owners accepted their walk would sadly be his last.

They had to wait two agonising days before a walker sounded the alarm after hearing a barking dog in the area.

For a dog who loves to tear apart stuffed animals, make a durable activity ball with a Hol-ee rubber ball, scraps of fabric, and treats.

Coastguard teams from Boscastle and Bude raced to the scene on Sunday afternoon and found Henry 20ft down a tight fissure near where he was last seen.

The rescue heroes decided the best method of extraction was to set up a rope rescue kit, featuring the all-important sausage roll.

See SWNS story SWPLdog; Henry's owners had accepted that he had likely fell down a fissure on the South West Coast Path and had not made it, but are now overjoyed after he was rescued several days later by coastguards in Boscastle. The pooch first went missing last Friday (April 8), along the undergrowth at The Strangles, north of Boscastle village. Rescuers were unable to see or hear the dog after searching for him for two hours with drones - and there was still no sign of him for a further 24 hours.

‘Once set up, a cliff technician was sent down to retrieve Henry with half a sausage roll and some treats,’ the Coastguard said.

‘After 30 minutes of shuffling and squeezing and some lassoing, we managed to get a lead around the dog and pull him up to safety to the obviously overjoyed and happy owners.

‘Once all kit was stowed away and everyone was happy, the teams were all stood down.’
