Pooch In Engine Surprises Pickup Owner
VACAVILLE, Calif. - A pit bull escapes a "ruff" situation after being found stuck inside a pickup truck engine on Tuesday.
View Images
It happened in the city of Vacaville, about 30 miles west of Sacramento.
The truck's owner said he made the discovery when he went add some power steering fluid to his vehicle. Walter Witthoeft popped the hood and said he saw a pair of eyes staring back at him.
He realized a pit bull had somehow found his way into the truck's engine compartment.
The pooch growled and Witthoeft went and called police. He said the officers who arrived couldn't believe what they were seeing either.
The dog had shredded the engine compartment, in an apparent attempt to chew his way out of his situation. Witthoeft said the pooch had bitten through the wires, vacuum hoses as well as gas lines. He said he suspects the dog got into the engine sometime Monday night and stayed there until the hood was popped.
The dog was safely removed and the truck was taken to the shop.

I scoff at all ya'lls xxx horsepower. I've got 1 Pit Bull power, and it's all I need...we only run for the money got no strings attached. We shut em up 'em we shut 'em down. Summer's here and the time is right for racin' in the street...
And believe me, red meat and bones are way cheaper than gasoline these days.

The 120lb one or whatever? Yeah, without a doubt. If some dude can pull an airplane with his ears, a big Pit could easily pull a car.

Kind of looks like my buddy...
That dog just has darker fur, or maybe it is just dirty from oil.
