1327 Portland Coastguard tasked Lulworth and Wyke Coastguard Rescue Teams to work together to rescue a Cocker Spaniel named Lily, who had fallen over the cliff above Man O War Cove, east of Durdle Door.  She was retrieved from a ledge some 30 feet down from the top and reunited with her owners.

Portland Coastguard has dealt with a number of dogs which have gone over cliffs during the last two weekends, as has the Coastguard generally.  Not all of these incidents have happy endings so dog owners are urged to always keep their pets on leads when in the vicinity of cliffs or other drops.
