“We got on our bellies and began peering over the cliff edge, slowly shuffling along fully expecting to see a body below.

“It was high tide and he must have landed in the water in just the right place and at the right angle.”
Claire made an emergency call and the lucky pooch was picked up by Newhaven’s RNLI lifeboat crew.
The crew found the frightened dog cowering at the base of the cliff.
The lucky pup was reunited with his owners shortly afterwards at the RNLI base at Birling Gap.
His only sign of injury was a limp.
