Meet Tofu. She came to us with a fishing hook inside of her! How or why she ate it, we're unsure. All we knew is we had to give her a chance, she's just 5 months old and pretty much a unicorn of a dog, she's perfect.

We said our prayers and sent her in for a specialty emergency surgery. But we are SO HAPPY to tell you they did not need to open her up! They actually used a tool called an endoscope (which is like a long tube with a camera on the end and a hole on the side so they can fit different attachments) to go in naturally through her mouth. The hook was lodged in her esophagus so they very carefully were able to pull it out and extract it. There was no perforation. What a miracle!

Tofu has fully recovered and has been adopted!
