SCOTTSDALE, AZ — Scottsdale Fire to the rescue!
The firefighters were called to a home Friday morning after a Golden Retriever, named Quinn, went down a hole to retrieve her ball and got stuck.
According to video and photos from the scene Quinn made her way pretty far down the hole. About 4 feet, according to Scottsdale FD.
It took crews over 20 minutes to dig her out.

We're told Quinn was not hurt, although she may be a little embarrassed. It's unclear is she ever got her ball back.
In a message on Twitter, the Scottsdale Fire Department reminds everyone that it is an "All Hazards Fire Department."
