The Akita, ironically named Rocky, was brought down the mountain in the Lake District on a sledge after becoming too tired to continue the walk.
A dog which refused to walk had to be rescued from England's highest mountain by a team of 13 in an operation which lasted more than four hours.
The"injured and exhausted" pooch, who was reportedly named Rocky and of the Akita breed, remained"cool, calm and positively regal" throughout the rescue by the Keswick Mountain Rescue team. The rescue team were allocated the job after the dog's owners initially rang the police, requesting assistance after their pet refused to walk on their return journey from Scafell Pike - England's highest mountain in the Lake District.
A spokesperson for the Keswick Mountain Rescue team said:"Despite being quite a large dog at 33kg it was a joy to carry such a relatively lightweight casualty."
