The Jack Russell managed to get her head caught in the hole of an old ute chassis rail and was unable to escape.

Enter the Wagga Volunteer Rescue Association crew.

While the group's rescues are generally of a more human nature - either car accidents or on-the-ground searches in the NSW RIverina - their skills were put to fine use.

The VRA crew cut a away a portion on the metal from the rusty vehicle and took it, and Roxy, to the Moorong Veterinary Clinic. There she was set free.

The animal rescues didn't end there for the Wagga VRA as, as odd as it may sound, a bird was stuck in a tree.

An injured crow took taking shelter in a tree along the Wiradjuri Walking Track in Wagga. The VRA retrieved the injured bird from up high and handed it over to the care of WIRES, making it two happy endings on the one day.
