Rescuers hailed as heroes after scaling cliff to rescue trapped dog

This poor beagle was trapped for three days. Until these guys risked their lives to save him.

Animal lovers and search and rescue personnel in Kerry joined forces yesterday for a dramatic cliff rescue that saved the life of a dog trapped in a crevice for three days.

The drama unfolded on the windswept cliffs of Valentia Island, where local man David O'Connor (69) was walking his two and a half year old beagle Shandon on Saturday.
