Rescue workers rescue dog trapped in window bars after trying to escape

A dog trapped between the bars of a window has been rescued and is doing well , but the mishap reported by United Press International would have been fine.

The incident took place this Wednesday, December 16 in Jurupa Valley , a town in Southern California. The owner of a local auto repair shop had to call Riverside County Animal Control Service to rescue his dog, who had found himself in bad shape.

The quadruped, a German Shepherd cross, had indeed tried to get out of the garage through the toilet window . The animal thought it could slip through the bars, but it eventually got stuck there . His master tried to bring him down, but he did not succeed.

A first agent, Chris Mayer , quickly arrived on the scene. He assessed the situation and reassured the canine, then was joined a few minutes later by his colleague, Sergeant Kyle Stephens . The 2 men ended up making the decision to remove the window by unscrewing it.
