A PUPPY needed life-saving surgery after swallowing a 20-inch plastic arrow while playing in the garden.
Bruno, a four-month-old Cane Corso, ingested the toy whole during a play session with another dog at his home in Openshaw.
When he came in from the garden retching, Bruno's owner Stacey Duff initially feared that he had something stuck in his throat. The 34-year-old took him to Manchester PDSA Pet Hospital, where vets were astonished to discover a huge arrow lodged in his food pipe.
Knowing they had to act fast, they rushed Bruno straight into emergency surgery. "The toy arrow that Bruno swallowed was so long it extended from his throat all the way to his stomach," said vet Caragh Kelleher, who helped to treat him.
