A shelter stepped in to save Narwhal, affectionately nicknamed ‘The Little Magical Fairy Unicorn’ due to the tail growing from his forehead. Despite facing significant challenges in his young life, this unique pup has found hope.
The ‘unicorn’ puppy was given a second chance after being hailed by many as the “coolest” dog ever.
This lovable puppy, with a tail sprouting from the middle of his head, became an internet sensation after being abandoned and left out in the “freezing cold.”
The rescue organization Mac’s Mission discovered the pup, who also had a foot injury, on the street alongside an older dog. They took both dogs into their care.
The staff named him ‘Narwhal the Little Magical Furry Unicorn,’ and the charming dog quickly gained a massive fan base after videos of him were shared on Facebook.
The Missouri-based center “specialises in special” and focuses on helping dogs that have been abused, injured, or born with defects, who would otherwise not survive without their assistance.
Back in 2019, the center addressed a question on every Narwhal fan’s mind — the tail, unfortunately, doesn’t wag when he gets excited. The puppy was taken to the vet, with staff reassuring him that it wouldn’t be scary, to investigate why the tail was there, whether it was connected, and most importantly, if it could wag.
Following the appointment, the center wrote: “The extra tail is not connected to anything and has no real use other than making him the COOLEST PUPPY EVER!”
“One of our followers said, ‘It appears they assembled the puppy wrong. Always follow the directions, people!’ This perfectly captures the feeling of discovering ‘extra parts’ during assembly.
