Moment RNLI rescue dog left stranded on sea cliff after chasing ball

Footage shows the moment a six-year-old spaniel was rescued from a sea cliff edge after becoming stuck while chasing a ball.

Moelfre RNLI crew sprang into action when the dog’s owner came to the lifeboat station in Anglesey requesting help after their dog, Ember, became stranded while walking along a coastal path on Wednesday (17 April) afternoon.

Moelfre RNLI Coxswain, Vince Jones, said: “Where the spaniel was trapped, it would have been inaccessible from the cliff top so kitted in our drysuits and lifejackets we entered the water and made our way onto the ledge.”

Ember was happily reunited with her owner unharmed.
