A firefighter has adopted a dog he helped rescue after finding it alone following its owner's death.

On Thursday afternoon Helston firefighters were called to help police and ambulance get into a house in the Breage area.

They found the resident had died, and unable to find any immediate family, the terrier-type dog had no home to go to.

Firefighter James Trounson adopted her with permission from the police and following checks by the RSPCA.

A spokesperson for the Helston Community Fire Service said: "Out of tragedy, sometimes there is happiness."
