Its a huge blessing they found the thing!!!!


FORT MYERS: A dog was rescued from a Fort Myers cement plant after he was discovered in a sand and stone bin during a routine inspection.
Workers at Cement Industries found the dog around 7:30 a.m. Monday.
Following his tracks, the workers were able to determine the dog, a three- to four-year-old pit bull mix named Oso, climbed up a conveyor belt [pictured below] and jumped into the bin.
"I tried to figure out how he got up there and we tracked his paw prints," said Jerry Horch of Cement Industries.
He said the dog could have been up there all weekend.
"He was cold and had the look of 'Get me out of here' on his face so I fed him some cheese until he got rescued," said Horch.
Ria Brown of Lee County Animal Services says Oso does have a microchip implant and they are working to track down his owners.
"The people that did find him say that he had been hanging around that area for several weeks though and they were feeding him and so he's probably been lost for a while," said Brown. "We're just glad that someone looked in there before they turned on the machine or something and saw that he was in there."
She says the dog is doing fine after his ordeal.
His owners have five days to claim him. After that, he will be put up for adoption or euthanized.
The man who found Oso says he would like to adopt him. He's already nicknamed the dog "Rocky."
