WASHINGTON — Two officers used their heads to rescue a dog trapped in a hole.
Officials told the Washington Post that the officers called a humane rescue group to save a chihuahua named Max from a five-foot hole Saturday night. It’s unclear how the dog fell down the hole.
After becoming concerned for the dog’s health, one officer held onto the other’s feet while he was lowered into the hole.
The dog and the officer were pulled from the hole safely.
Police Chief Peter Newsham said the officers went “above and beyond” the call of duty.
