Ski Patrol Dog Rescued

A lost ski patrol dog was stuck down a hole in the Scottish hills for two days before being rescued.

Bode disappeared while on her morning round, checking for hazards on the ski runs, with Kate Hunter, head of ski patrol at the Glenshee centre.

The young cross-collie disappeared at about 1030am on Saturday.

Kate's friends found Bode down a 5ft (1.52m) hole in peat, which was buried under heath and snow close to the centre, late on Sunday afternoon.

Kate said: "She was cold and wet but otherwise okay. She was allowed to sleep on the sofa on Sunday night."
