A DOG was rescued by firefighters after becoming stranded by ice.
The collie, which is thought to be a stray, was chasing ducks across the frozen lake at Firs Park in Leigh this morning.
It managed to get on to an island in the middle of the water, but was stranded after the ice started to melt.
The RSPCA is now caring for the animal.
