Editor's Choice Picture of the Day - Blue the Miracle Puppy - September 29, 2011
An eight-week old puppy's backyard misadventure landed him in emergency surgery to remove a metal pole he had swallowed. It's still unknown how he managed to swallow the pole. The miracle pup named Blue was lucky to have quick thinking owners who rushed him to the Rehm Veterinary Clinic in Mobile Alabama where veterinarians removed the object during a 90 minute procedure.

Poor puppy! This must have been an ordeal for both the poor thing and the owner who must have freaked out. Glad to see he is ok. In my home I have to hide all the plastic bags as one of my kitties loves to eat them! I am explaining to him that vet bills are not in the budget :)
