- Hiya Kez - made me laugh (sorry!!) Only one of your dogs could end up 30' up a tree ......... glad you got Belle back safely.

- You may be interested to know that cats and dogs share the same heritage (I'm going back millions of years here) and are descended from tree-dwelling animals. Dogs moved to the plains, cats stayed in the trees. But for some dogs there is still a genetic throwback. I've known of a few dogs who climbed trees (successfully!). Maybe Belle's deep deep instincts kicked in for some reason? So glad it had a happy ending :)

- OMG!
That's a first for us....a dog stuck 30 foot up a tree! Spoke to owner last night who said the hardest thing was convincing the fire brigade as they had never been called out for a dog up a tree before and thought it was a hoax call! - 2010-10-15 21:38 Angus
- Oh wow - what an amazing story - normally we recommend to check the low shrubbery and brambles not 30 foot up in a tree, so happy that you have her back safe & well done to the firemen !

So pleased lovely Belle is o.k. well done to the fire brigade, bet that was a bit of a shock they are normally used to cats getting stuck up trees.

- Jayne thank you so much for your help, just got in from having Belle rescued by the fire brigade she was 30ft up a tree 6foot from where I lost her!! Sodding squirrels luring her to do something so naughty!! It took me over 5 hours to find her (she eventually was brave enough to "speak" on command!!) and then getting her down, so sorry for the delay in getting back in touch.
She has a slight limp as one would expect after sitting with a branch wedged between her legs for 5 hours! Otherwise its like she's never been away. Thanks again your support is invaluable x - 2010-10-15 17:29 Jayne - Founder Doglost.
