A dog’s 30-foot cliff fall in north Pembrokeshire has led to coastguards issuing a new warning to pet owners.

"Please always keep your dogs on a lead - even the best-trained and well- behaved dogs have an off day,” said Fishguard coastguard rescue team after the incident yesterday, Tuesday August 2.

Fortunately Milo the dog seemed none the worse for his ordeal at Aberfforest, Dinas.
