When you see everything through a picture frame … | Larry Martin

March 18, 2024

Dogs are known to stick their heads anywhere if there is a smell intriguing enough. That can be said for Bear, a Cane Corso, who for nearly a year had his head stuck in the top of a garbage can — the boxy kind you find in public shopping centers or parks. It made him look kind of like an astronaut without a suit ... and a cube for a helmet.

Pictures of Bear with the box on his head made their rounds on the internet over the past few months, as people in Mobile, Ala., often spotted the pooch but were never able to capture him to get the lid off his head. Finally, Bear was freed from his cranium prison late last month when two animal shelters worked together to corner him and remove it. One of the men that freed Bear has since adopted him and seems to have given him a pretty nice life. 

I had an issue like this once, but it wasn’t with a dog. It was my 2-year-old son. 

Now, don’t feel boxed in by today’s RTO Insider news.

From everyone at RTO Insider, thanks for reading and enjoy the rest of your day!
