A dog trapped between two walls in Mexico City's Tláhuac district was freed after a neighbor let police into her home and showed them where the animal was stuck. The white-and-brown dog was immobilized on Caracol Street and crying for help.

Specialists from the Animal Surveillance Brigade of the city's Public Security Secretariat carried out several maneuvers to release her. They carefully placed a rope around her legs and pulled her free without causing injuries.

The dog was taken to the brigade's facilities in Xochimilco for a veterinary examination. Doctors found no wounds or other injuries, but kept her in the medical area because she showed signs of malnutrition.
