Tiny puppy left on 'brink of death' after being mauled by large dog
A tiny puppy who almost died after being mauled by a large dog in Trafford has made a miraculous recovery. Diane Columbine was walking her five-month-old fox terrier, Matilda, in her local park in Urmston when, without warning, it was set upon.
With help from husband Steve, Diane rushed Matilda to a nearby Vets Now 24-hour pet hospital, nursing her on the back seat of their car as they battled through traffic. "We handed her over at reception and I was totally convinced that was the last time I was going to see my dog – she was so tiny, so weak and so injured I thought they would just have to put her down."In the process, Matilda was so weak she suffered a cardiac arrest but the veterinary team were able to restart her tiny heart by carrying out an internal cardiac massage.
After five days of round-the-clock care, Matilda was well enough to go home with Diane and Steve, who were instructed to give her gentle physiotherapy every four hours for two weeks. "I slept downstairs for a fortnight next to her cage so that she wasn't alone and so I could give her the physio which Paul and the team showed me how to do.
