A puppy has been saved from certain death by RNLI heroes after falling from a 60ft coastal ledge. Cockapoo Betty, 11 months old, was trapped in an isolated cove for six hours before reuniting with her owner.
Royal National and Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) volunteers in Ilfracombe, Devon, were called to the area last month after Betty slipped off the top of the cliff. She then fell onto the tidal shelf beneath it.
Betty’s owner, Karen Porter, said the ordeal was “terrifying” and admits she is “amazed” her puppy survived the fall.
