Miracle Puppy

This cute chihuahua named Smokey, a 12-week old puppy survived a 3 day ordeal with a fork stuck on its brain. It was reported that while on barbecue, the fork snapped into half and flew in the air before finally landing on the puppy’s head. Smokey then ran and hid in the woods for two days.

After the owner Hughie Wagers found Smokey, he was brought to the Cumberland Valley Animal Hospital in London Kentucky. The Vet Dr. Keaton Smith informed the owner that the fork was indeed stuck on the pup’s brain and a surgery was needed to remove the utensil. Knowing that Smokey’s chance of survival was only 50/50 but miraculously after the operation which only took about 30 seconds to remove the fork, Smokey was fine. As a quote from an article in pawnation.com the Vet stated that
“His nerve endings around the eye still seem to be a little slow but I think that will heal over time,” said Smith. “He really is a little miracle.”
