Dog owner has memorable first date after pet plunges 100ft down cliff
Ms Ruggier's 12-month-old dog fell off a cliff in Devon, but is expected to make a full recovery
Philippa Ruggier took along pointer-vizsla cross Luther when she met her companion for a romantic seaside walk on Saturday.
But as the couple walked along the top of the cliffs, 12-month-old Luther tumbled over the edge.
He howled for help from a ledge before slipping to the bottom of the cliff at Orcombe Point, near Exmouth, Devon, injuring his leg.
Her date Michael and a passer-by helped keep Ms Ruggier calm as a lifeboat team rescued the stricken pup.
