-

A sheepdog missing since the weekend was rescued after getting stuck on a 50ft ledge during a storm.

Alfie got lost on craggy ground near Tynron in Dumfries and Galloway and repeated searches by his owners failed to find him.

However, they heard him barking in an overnight thundersto­rm on Tuesday and called out Moffat Mountain Rescue Team.

Alfie was then rescued from the ledge.
