A mountain rescue mission was launched after a canine fell from the sting of a crag right into a quarry close to Stirling.
Volunteers from Lomond Mountain Rescue have been known as to the scene at Craigmore Hill above Aberfoyle on Thursday at round 11.29am after a walker reported an accident involving their canine.
A Border Terrier had fallen over the sting of a crag and down into the quarry under the hill.
The canine’s tracker was displaying no indicators of motion earlier than rescue groups rigged rope tools on the high of the hill to begin a descent.
Team members then noticed a “wagging tail” close to a rocky part of the quarry under and two rescuers met the canine and took it to security.
Lomond Mountain Rescue posted on Facebook: “Pleased to report that whilst the team were rigging a rope system at the top of the crag in preparation to descend, a team member spotted a wagging tail on a rocky section below.
“Two team members were tasked with approaching from below where they were met by “wee dug” the Border Terrier with nothing worse than a sheepish look from the autumn.”
Scottish Mountain Rescue added: “A successful canine call-out today for Lomond Mountain Rescue Team!”
