7 Feb 2012 “Daz” – (Ch Brenndarcy
Spellbinder) was rescued Yesterday from an icy pond
in Oakenshaw, near Bradford. He was out for a country walk with his owner Richard
near Mill Carr pond Oakenshaw, when
he decided to chase after some moor hens who headed for the iced over pond.
Daz also ran over the ice which then gave way! Not being a natural swimmer he tried unsuccessfully
to climb back on to the ice, luckily he saw a small island and managed to get
himself on to there. Meanwhile a Fire Officer came out to asses the
situation, then a crew from nearby Brighouse attended and with an inflatable
Sled went over the ice to rescue him. By this time the rest of the family had
arrived and were very relieved when he was safely returned to dry land. When I spoke to his owners last night he had
been checked over by the Vet and was sat on the settee in a blanket with a hot water bottle. Like most Cairns this morning he is non the
worse from his experience and was raring to go out for his usual morning walk! Incidently one of the Firecrew was also called
Daz! |
