HIGHLAND >> A Cal Fire firefighter in Highland Thursday found a new use for the trauma shear scissors.

Panicked dog owners brought his dog to Cal Fire station, 26974 Base Line, after the pup got its head stuck in a jar.

“This doggie ... got into the hard plastic jar to steal the trail mix inside and couldn’t get out,” said Cal Fire spokeswoman Liz Brown.

The owners tried at home to get the jar off, but when they were unsuccessful, they brought the dog to the fire station, she said.

Dogs are idiots. I’m pretty sure they lost quite a bit of IQ during their devolution from wolves.

For whatever reason, that is actually true; wolves are smarter than dogs.

Not just DC. Seems like a little power lowers IQ significantly even in small towns.

I can't believe the people didn't think to open the bottom to let the poor dog breathe. Talk about low IQ. In this case the dog was smarter than the owners.

I did that 5 years ago to a raccoon kit. Peanut butter jar. Had to climb a tree to get him.

I hope that the trail mix didn’t have raisins in it- puppy might die anyway if it did.

It’s amazing how much critters love peanut butter. That’s the absolute best thing to bait your mouse traps with.

My cat doesn’t like people food, except for peanut butter sandwiches. She’ll grab mine if she gets a chance.

True that. But hey, at least they didn’t dial 911 and make the firefighters come to them. After all, this was California, right?

Hardly anyone knows how to use hand tools any more. A pair of side-cutters (used to be called dykes) or some tin snips and that plastic would be off on a minute. Everyone should have basic shop in Junior or High School.

I once found a dead cat on the side of the road with its head tightly stuffed inside a potato chip bag. I tossed the cat on the passenger seat to take home and give it a decent burial. Ten minutes later I turned my head to a very much alive angry Cujo-kitty which shredded my interior.
