A puppy euthanized by veterinarians has risen from the dead.

The black-and-white pooch was one of five young dogs put to sleep Saturday at a shelter in Sulphur, Okla., News 9 in Oklahoma City reported. Each dog was checked and confirmed to be dead, then the 3-month-old and his four siblings were placed in a trash bin.

On Sunday morning, an animal control officer looked into the bin and discovered that the one pup somehow survived.

"He was just as healthy as could be," Scott Prall told News 9.

He was euthanized by an anti death penalty vet who provided a precedent for eliminating lethal injection

Zombie puppy

I object to the fact they put the poor little dead puppies in the bin like trash, thats disgraceful.

So glad he survived.

“You won’t believe what happened to me!”

To bad the pup can’t write a book about his ‘now’ life!

The puppies were “placed in a trash bin”? I don’t think that part of it is right. Most animals that have died are placed in a freezer until they are picked up for disposal by someone the vet (etal) hires for disposal.

Would you be surprised, if they can toss aborted fteuses in the bin like they do, you bet they’ll do it to puppies.

This is a Devil Dog.

Adopt at your own peril.

I kan haz brainz?

[mentor2k]

Whatever, but I still think somethings wrong with this story concerning the “trash bin” my sister’s a vet and I’m pretty sure carcass disposal is regulated to where they’re supposed to be frozen.

Someone should rename this pup ‘Lazarus’.

Cute little guy. He looks sweet.

Our society cares more for puppies than unborn babies. Obama, and his supporters, would prefer a baby that survives an abortion attempt, be left to die. Meanwhile, anyone caught "being cruel" to dogs or cats will be arrested and prosecuted (except of course, if its a cop, shooting a puppy in someones home)

With 5 pups involved here, makes me suspicious that the euthanizer has trouble counting. I mean, big numbers, like up to 4 or 5. Alternatively, might have mistakenly injected the same dog twice, leaving one not injected. In any case, kudos to this lucky pup - hope he/she finds a good loving home...

[sunmars]

well if this particular vet had frozen it as you say they are supposed to then i suspect that puppy would be dead, not exactly alive.........

A “Devil Dog”? You mean a US Marine now there are some Devil Dogs. This is just a cute puppy if I were in the States I would gladly adopt him.
