RESCUE ME: Bilbo, the Life Saving Newf
February 212010
Britain’s only lifeguard dog Bilbo made this special video appeal to get his job back. Bilbo a 14-stone Newfoundland made the Baywatch-style film to show himself in action after he was axed from his post in May 2008.
The seven-year-old Newfoundland, who has been credited with helping save three lives at Sennen Cove in Cornwall, lost his job when the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) decided that his services were no longer required.
But, the film and resultant petition must have worked, because this wonderful boy will back this summer (2009) working on the beach.
