A dog owner has shared her shock after her puppy was seriously hurt while playing with a stick in the park. The seven-month-old red setter called Yoshi needed urgent surgery after he started "crying and whining" on a walk, and it was discovered that he'd tore his oesophagus with a sharp stick.
Happily, Yoshi has now made a full recovery and owner Anna Nesterova is warning fellow dog lovers to be careful when out and about. Anna, from South Dublin, told the Mirror : "It all happened while we were out on a walk when Yoshi was playing and running around with other dogs.
