FERGUSON, Mo. — A puppy a day keeps the doctor away, or something like that — but in this pup's case, it didn't keep the firefighters at bay.

Wednesday afternoon, the Ferguson Fire Department was to the scene of a puppy trapped in a pipe, the department said on Facebook. There, firefighters found the puppy inverted in an 8-inch pipe located about 20 feet underground.

Crews from Ladder 3025 and Engine 3014 worked together to help pull the pup back to solid ground with the utilization of a series of ropes.

"We are happy to report that the puppy was removed and returned to his relieved owner," the Facebook post said.
