Spring is an exciting time of year for a young dog.

There are critters to chase, smells to smell and lessons to learn.

Today, this adventurous Fortuna pup decided to solve one of life’s great mysteries: What’s on the other side of the hole?

The answer? The Fortuna Volunteer Fire Department and an ear full of bearing grease.

Not all of our rescues involve humans! This pup made an unfortunate decision this morning and got his head stuck. Captain Smith greased the dog’s head well with bearing grease and was able to work his ears back through.
