Fire crews were called today to rescue a dog stuck in a culvert near Drayton St Leonard, south Oxfordshire.

Three appliances, one from Watlington, one from Kidlington and one from Abingdon, came to the rescue of the dog, when it became stuck in a culvert between Berinsfield and Drayton St Leonard shortly after 3pm.

The crews dug out the dog, a terrier called Alfie, using shovels and left him in the care of his owner.
