MELBOURNE - A chihuahua survived an accidental 900kg stomp on its head, made by its buddy horse weighing about 900kg.
Little Berry was suspected to have been almost squashed flat when Leroy, a Clydesdale, stepped backwards on to her head.
Owner Abbey Newton, 24, feared the dog was dead and took her to a vet, who gave it 24 hours to live and suggested she be put down.
But Abbey took her back home, and to the caretaker’s much surprise, Berry was her usual self by the morning.
“She just got up and ate my other dog’s breakfast,” the Daily Tetelgraph quoted Abbey as having told the Metro newspaper. (ANI)
