Those puppy dog eyes won’t get him out of this jam.


A curious California puppy with an ill-advised tire fixation took things too far and got his head stuck in the rim on Friday.


The pup’s owners brought their puppy donut to their local fire station for an extraction.


Firefighters from Station 41 in East Bakersfield used “cooking oil and a little ingenuity” to free the pup, then posted before and after pictures on the department’s Facebook page.

A spokesman for the Kern County Fire Department said the rescue took about 10 minutes.


“They got a bunch of vegetable oil and lathered it up,” Brandon Hill, the department’s public information officer, told the Daily News. He noted it was a little tricky due to all the loose puppy skin. “He was crying a little bit, but it was a nice quick little rescue.”


The puppy was playing on a patio where his owner’s rims were temporarily stashed, a woman who identified herself as the puppy’s owner said on Facebook. She added that the pup has no bumps or scrapes from his ordeal and is doing well.
