Fourth puppy rescued from Cork mineshaft

The story of four puppies stranded in a Cork mineshaft ended happily today.

Three of the puppies were rescued earlier and this afternoon members of the Toe Head Coast Guard revisited the mine to check if the remaining dog had made its way out.

In an update posted to facebook the rescue crew said, "we tried to gain entrance to the mine from lower down the hill but it had collapsed so we lowered the owner and one of our climbers down. The dog came straight up to his owner and all were hauled out safely."

So all's well that ends well
