Deformed puppy dies after birth in Laos
A puppy with a strange elephant-like trunk protruding from its forehead died soon after it was born in Pholsy village of Sikhottabong district, Vientiane, yesterday.
The odd looking male dog had been born that morning alongside three healthy female dogs but died within five minutes of delivery.
The man who has the puppy’s corpse, Mr Onchanh Boutsady, said he got a call from his mother-in-law in Pholsy village to come see the strange newborn.
“It was dead before I arrived. But I’ve taken the dog’s body to my house in A-kard village, Sikhottabong district, in the hope of preserving it.”
“I went to several veterinary surgeons but they were all closed as it was Sunday, so I’ve decided to preserve the body myself using alcohol because if I waited until the next day, it would be swollen and smelly,” he explained.
Mr Onchanh said the three other puppies born at the same time are all in good health and do not display any unusual features, adding that this was not the first time the mother dog had given birth, but it was certainly her strangest litter.
During a visit by local press to Mr Onchanh’s home, people from around the village came to take photos of the extraordinary puppy snatched all too soon from this Earth.
