19.43 Tytherington Quarry, Grovesend, Thornbury
A Husky dog, called Swift, had to be rescued after falling 45
feet from the edge of a quarry. On arrival crews located the
animal, who had been missing all day after running off from its
owner.
The rope rescue team used a sling to winch the animal to safety.
It suffered a broken leg and hip in the fall and needed to be
treated by a vet
