Downey firefighters rescued a 7-month-old puppy Monday that was trapped after it tried squeezing through a household gate. Firefighters used power tools and liquid soap to free the young pup, named Spartacus. "He was really stuck in the fence, and [the firefighters] came to his rescue," said Wendy Parsley, the dog's owner. "I am really grateful for them…no matter how big or small of a rescue, they were there to help." ********** Published: August 12, 2010 - Volume 9 - Issue 17
