Hero mother dog carries dying puppy to VET for treatment – before watching medics battle to save her

This is the incredible moment a mother dog carries her seriously ill pup into the vets to receive lifesaving treatment. CCTV captured the stray dog trotting through the rain while gripping the helpless pup in her mouth before dropping it at the door of a veterinary clinic in Turkey, The Sun reports.

In the treatment room, the vets didn’t waste their time as they immediately administered injections to the puppy and blow-dried its soaking wet fur. Medics found the pup to have a dangerously low heart rate and had to immediately place the little pooch in intensive care, meaning the mother dog had carried her baby in just in time. Vets simply named the doting dog “Mum”. She didn’t stray from her baby, as Mum is seen on CCTV remaining incredibly close by while vets worked on the pup on the treatment table. Veterinarian Baturalp Oghan revealed that the dog had previously given birth to a litter of pups nearby – but most them tragically died. Animal lovers had even brought in one surviving puppy to the clinic, unaware there was another close by in near-fatal condition. It’s believed the mum dog found her last remaining puppy before bringing it to the clinic. Dr Oghan explained that her…
