Dog rescued after falling off cliff

A dog that fell over a cliff in Laxey was safely rescued over the weekend. 

Douglas Coastguards and Ramsey Lifeboat worked together for five and a half hours to recover a Bull Mastiff that had fallen just north of Laxey Bay.

Crews say the dog didn't appear to be injured, and after trying to get her into a lifeboat, instead decided to bring her back up the 150ft cliff.

Pooch Nelly was recovered and reunited with her owner Julie.
