Rescued puppy helps new family to heal
Rescued from a drain in Newlands West in November and his survival in doubt, puppy Yoda has not only recovered and found a forever home, but is also helping to heal the heartache of a Durban North family. The puppy’s new owner, Kate Hunt, said this week that although the puppy’s adoption from Durban & Coast SPCA happened quite by chance, it was “meant to be”.
In November, emergency services were called to a scene after receiving reports a baby was stuck in a drain in Castle Hill, Newlands West. On arrival, paramedics soon realised it was a puppy in the drain. Medics went into the drain to rescue the pup, which was rushed to vets at Durban & Coast SPCA.This week, Hunt, from Durban North, said the family had lost their Labrador, Jake, in tragic circumstances.
