FIREFIGHTERS attended a canine calamity on Friday when two dogs got stuck together when playing.

The barking mad mutts were separated using small hand tools after one of the pets got his tooth stuck in the other one's collar.

Leading firefighter Daniel Quinn said it took five firefighters about an hour to free the panic-stricken pooches after being called to Walter Nash Road, Kidderminster at 11.45pm.

"They wrapped themselves round each other playing and one of the dog's teeth got stuck in the collar of the other and they wrapped each other up and we had to cut them apart," he explained.
