A little terrier mix left inside a locked trash compactor in Gardena, California, just days before Christmas, is now safe and loved—all thanks to the police sergeant who found him. After hearing whimpers from the bin, Sergeant Nick Beerling stepped in when animal control couldn’t access the locked compactor. The pup, now named Norm, was only days away from tragedy but instead got a new start. The Beerling family adopted him on Christmas Eve, making this a true holiday rescue story.
