As you might have guessed, this one sparked a flurry of Beatles puns.

“Ringo Starr was found in the morning but it's possible he could have become stuck for some time before, it could well have been A Hard Day's Night for him, until he started crying for Help,” he said.

Nice one.

Thankfully, it didn’t take much to get the little dog out.

With some strategic manoeuvring and a whole lot of vegetable oil, Ringo was free.

After taking him to a vet for a quick check up and a bath, Ringo it seems was good as gold.
