Although the story could have had a sad ending, I’m happy to report that it actually has a happy one. Last week, a fox terrier got stuck in a wrought iron gate located at Lake Gardens (which is located in Victoria, Australia). The fox terrier who got stuck in the gate is namedRizzo. As anyone who has a fox terrier knows, they are definitely small dogs. As a result, Rizzo most likely thought that she could squeeze through the gate without any problem. Unfortunately for her, while she was able to get her head through a circle in the gate, once she attempted to pull her head out, it was apparent that she was stuck.

Rizzo got stuck in the gate around 6 pm. After getting stuck, her own (Kate Toner) called firefighters for assistance. When the firefighters arrived, the assessed the scene and decided that instead of attempting to cut the circle off ofRizzo’s head, the best way to handle the situation would be to cut the circle off of the gate with a large saw.

Once the firefighters successfully cut the circle off of the gate without harming Rizzo in any way, Kate Toner and her daughter Natalie were able to take Rizzo to the vet. Once they arrived, the vet was able to sedate Rizzo and safely slip the circle off of Rizzo’s neck. Thanks to smart thinking by the firefighters and the expertise of the vet, Rizzo was able to come out of this fiasco completely unharmed!
