A puppy in Arizona recently found herself in a tight squeeze, but thanks to diligent work from rescuers, was luckily extracted from her unusual hiding place without harm.

The little dognamed Gracie, just 14 weeks old, had recently tried to escape two larger dogs who were chasing her on Feb. 1, according to a Facebook post from the Arizona Humane Society (AHS).

The scary situation resulted in her “[wedging] her way on top of the rear axle of the undercarriage of a car” and becoming too frightened to make her way out.

The organization dispatched emergency tech Dan McGrath to help following the reports of thepuppy’s plight, according to 12 News in Mesa, Arizona.
