Get down boy!

A nutty dog had to be rescued by a tree surgeon after getting stuck on a branch 50ft up chasing squirrels.

Bruce the terrier was left trapped for around five hours before being reunited with his owners Glenice and Barry Clapperton, reports the Daily Mirror.

He had dashed off during his morning walkies in Kirkby-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire.

Barry said: "He's only about 15 months old and he's a bit mischievous but he doesn't normally do that kind of thing!

"We were a bit worried while he was up there because it was about 50ft up - but as soon as he was back down he was back running around again like nothing had happened."

RSPCA inspector Tina McAdams says the incident was a first for her.

"We got him down on all fours eventually with the help of a tree surgeon who came out to help," she said. "If I hadn't have seen it with my own eyes I wouldn't have believed it!"
