Mystery as sausage dog stuck in a wine rack gets rescued by firefighters

Fire crews have rescued an unlucky sausage dog who lodged her head between the sections of a wine rack.

The pooch's worried owner called a rescue team to her home in Waterbeach, Cambridgeshire last week after finding her dachsund, Millie, with her head stuck between two metal bars.

The rescue team freed Millie by splitting the metal with bolt cutters, giving her space to wriggle free.

It took the firemen 30 minutes to release the pup from her self-constructed cage, Cambridgeshire Live reports.

Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service assured people she was unharmed during the ordeal.

Once released, she was pleased to be back in the arms of her owner, according to reports.

The pooch was freed within 30 minutes and quickly returned to her owner, according to Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service (CFRS)
