An adventurous dog who got into trouble off the rocks of a Sydney suburb has to be hoisted to safety in a dramatic rescue involving NSW Police Rescue and Bondi surf lifesavers.

He became trapped on a rock ledge due to rising tides and big swell, with NSW Police Rescue abseiling down the cliff to get to him.An adventurous dog who got into trouble off the rocks of a Sydney suburb had to be hoisted to safety in a dramatic rescue involving NSW Police Rescue and Bondi surf lifesavers on Thursday morning.

Marcella Hayward had been walking Gus with her grandson and told ABC Radio Sydney they tried to catch him."Someone pointed to him and he was out right on the edge on the rock ledge.""I saw this massive wave coming and it totally wiped him out and he disappeared under the wave," she said. With the help of some treats, the rescuer strapped a harness on the dog, and held Gus in his arms as they were gradually winched up the cliff."Gus is clearly the adventurous type so we think he enjoyed his time on rope," they said.
