The seven-year-old canine, named Willy, accidentally fell down the well last night (Thursday 14 January) in a woodland near Boyatt Lane, Eastleigh. Willy’s owner, Roger Bacon, found his beloved pet after hearing his barks coming from the pit.
The pair – along with Roger’s second dog – had been out for their usual evening walk when Roger realised Willy was no longer in tow. Roger searched the woodlands, following Willy’s cries, to find the opening concealed by ivy.
