A puppy named Toshi fell into a hole in DeKalb County, Ga., on Tuesday morning, and firefighters and emergency crews had to use heavy equipment to rescue the little guy.
According to WSB Atlanta, he fell into a six-foot-deep hole near an apartment complex and may have gotten stuck in PVC piping.
It sounds like a harrowing ordeal for the young pooch, but we can’t say it was completely for naught: After all, it did result in this swoon-worthy GIF of a firefighter palming a puppy.
