Firefighters rescued a dog that had become stuck in a water-filled ditch in Rooksbridge yesterday (August 16).

Just before 5pm yesterday, Devon and Somerset Fire Service was called to Mendip Road, Rooksbridge, to rescue the Labrador that had become stuck in a rhyne.

One fire crew from Burnham-on-Sea attended and used one flood suit and a triple extension ladder to rescue the dog.
