A dog has been rescued from a tight spot by Queensland firefighters armed with a bottle of olive oil and a lot of patience.
The puppy, named Bonnie, stuck its head through the middle of a wheel rim but couldn’t pull itself back out.
It was up to the firefighters at Mareeba Fire and Rescue to figure out a solution to the sticky situation.
“Crews used lots of olive oil and patience to assist in the extrication,” Queensland Fire and Emergency Services said in a Facebook post.
“We hear she’s recovering well.”
Mareeba is a rural town in Far North Queensland, inland from Cairns.

“In the face of Dora’s heartbreaking situation, our team embarked on a mission to rescue and care for her. Arriving at the scene, we witnessed her perilous attempts to navigate traffic, dodging speeding cars that threatened her safety. It was clear we needed to intervene swiftly to prevent further harm.
Upon closer examination, Dora’s condition was dire. Injuries from a previous accident hindered her ability to walk, and her skin bore the scars of harsh weather, causing her to lose fur. Determined to help, we brought Dora into our care, providing a safe haven for her to receive the necessary medical attention.
Under the vigilant care of veterinarians, Dora began the healing process. Treatment for her injuries and dedicated care led to a gradual recovery of her skin and a newfound strength in her step.
As Dora’s health improved, we showered her with love and support, helping her regain not only physical strength but also confidence. Her transformation was remarkable – she walked with ease, and her fur grew back, restoring her appearance.
Recognizing that Dora deserved a forever home filled with love and security, we set out to find the perfect family. After an extensive search, we connected with a wonderful family eager to welcome her into their lives.
With her new family, Dora thrived, experiencing a life brimming with love, comfort, and companionship. Her incredible journey stands as a testament to the resilience, hope, and the unbreakable bond that exists between humans and animals.”
