Dog Stuck In Tree Rescued By Firefighters After Squirrel-Chasing Mishap

Talk about barking up the wrong tree.

An Idaho fire department successfully rescued a pet from a tree this week with one unusual detail ― the stuck animal was a dog.

“Well, definitely not a cat in a tree,” the Caldwell Fire Department wrote, accompanying photos of the canine sitting in the branches and a firefighter carrying him down.

My oldest visited with his pup for about a month during the holiday.

His pup would sail off the porch if we even said the word squirrel. No squirrels were ever in any actual danger. The tree the squirrels run up is a huge towering fir tree, so at least the pup would never get stuck up there.

Too funny
