Team called by Langdale Ambleside MRT. They were in the process of dealing with multiple callouts and requested our help when another came through. Ollie the dog had sustained an injury to his hind leg whilst out with his owner. It was fortunate for Ollie that the teams “Dog whisperer” Shane was on hand for his second dog rescue in two days. We received some advice from Oakhill veterinary’s on call vet and Ollie was administered some pain relief and was soon comfy in a backpack ready for transport off the hill. We are not sure if searchdog Fern is contemplating whether this should also become normal practise when out with Dave. As with all our casualties we wish Ollie and Bella speedy recoveries.
