Beast of Bodmin Moor Slimmed Down To Be Free



Border cross Lakeland terrier Bilbo managed to get himself free by slimming down after three weeks stuck down a rabbit hole at Bodmin Moor.


Bilbo vanished during a walk on Bodmin Moor near his home in Dobwalls, South East Cornwall, on November 7. The family were convinced he was stuck down the hole but plastered the village with "lost" posters just in case he had escaped and was on the loose.


Mrs Harwood added: "He looked so skinny and sorry for himself when I first saw him. He was caked in bog mud and had trouble breathing. Luckily he is gaining weight and is nearly back to his full health now. We are just so grateful to have him home. It really is a miracle he survived."
