Firefighters rescue dog and fox trapped under shed

Firefighters from Chelmsford rescued a dog called Bell who was trapped under a shed after chasing a fox.

The playful pooch and her sister were chasing a fox in the garden and got trapped under the shed. Her sister managed to get out but Bell and the fox got stuck. 

Watch Manager Nathan Godfrey said: “Crews worked quickly to dig out the side of the shed to release the fox, which was huge! Once the fox was out the way crews cut the floorboards out of the shed to release Bell. Both Bell and the fox came to no harm and we were able to reunite her with her happy owners."
