Upbeat little start to the morning:

Last Friday, Bill Kiesbing said he was working on a tractor and front loader when he got stuck in a tight spot.

“I went to jack up the high loader to get the tractor under it, the hydraulic cylinder shifted on me and the jack fell and pinned me on the ground,” Kiesbing told KMBC’s Lara Moritz.

Kiesbing said MacGyver, his 6-year-old golden retriever, helped rescue him. MacGyver is a service dog for Kiesbing, who is paralyzed from the waist down.

“I couldn’t get up. The tractor’s running, so I hollered for Mac and sent him over to get the neighbor,” Kiesbing said. “I told him, ‘Go get Van. Go.”

“MacGyver comes to my door, and he usually comes inside to get something to eat, but that day he didn’t want to come inside, so I went outside and heard my neighbor yelling at me,” neighbor Van Read said.

MacGyver led the neighbor over to Kiesbing.

Here’s the rest. More blogging after the caffeine hits.
