This dog wanted a bird’s eye view.
A mischievous mutt named Rocky was rescued after he got himself stuck on the roof of his owners’ Massachusetts home.
The pup apparently poked his nose through a cracked upper-story window at the house in Revere, and then climbed out on the roof with no clue how to get back inside, NBC Boston reported.
A good Samaritan passing by, along with the animal control officer, scaled a fire escape, grabbed Rocky and then waited for the dog’s owner to come home from her job in nearby Winthrop.
When the Rocky’s owner, Yuliana, returned, they were able to push out an air conditioner and let the dog back inside.
“He has a mind of his own,” Yuliana told the outlet. “The window was slightly open and he came out. Thank God we have really good people here in Revere to help us out with our dog.”

Yuliana was working when she got a call from her mother, who said Rocky, a large 7-year-old dog, was on the roof.
“She had gotten a call from the school straight across the street from where we live. They called the police,” she said.
Animal Control arrived within minutes.
We managed to get the dog through the window to a safe position, and we’re good,” Revere Animal Control Officer Anthony Masiello said.
“It was just an accidental thing — the dog wanted to go out for a walk,” he said.
“He’s a very good dog, very friendly dog,” Masiello added. “I’m glad it worked out and that he didn’t jump.
