Yesterday, however, a volunteer RNLI lifeboat crew spotted Sprig at the foot of a high cliff while out on a training exercise, and leapt to his rescue.
The RNLI crew had initially thought he was a stranded sheep and were surprised to find the small, sad pup.
Once safely on board, Sprig cheered up a bit.
He has since returned to his normal daily routine.
