Firefighters came to the rescue of a Chihuahua Wednesday when the pooch took a tumble off the family’s deck in Exeter, New Hampshire,.

Daisy’s owner Linda George noticed the deck was icy, according to a Facebook post by the Exeter Fire Department. She said she had the thought that Daisy could slip, and then she did, falling into a gap between the house and the deck.

The fire department responded and EMT/Firefighter Hope Moore was able to squeeze under the deck to get Daisy free. Daisy was unhurt and “thrilled” to get a treat once she was reunited with her owners.

“We’ll help people whenever, even if it’s not fire or medical. I would do anything to save my dog and clearly they feel the same way,” Moore said.

Daisy, who is 17, was unhurt and “thrilled” to get a treat once she was reunited with her owners.
