HAVE YOU BEEN watching Channel 4′s new documentary The Supervet?
The show follows Irish vet Noel Fitzpatrick, who originally hails from Laois, as he does anything and everything to care for hard-to-cure pets around Britain. Hearts in our eyes.
Last night’s episode centred around rescue dog Daphne, adopted from Thailand.
She had been attacked with a machete in her home country – she lost one of her front legs in the attack, and severely injured her other front paw.
Inspired by Wolverine from the X-Men, Fitzpatrick constructed a new, fully operational paw for Daphne out of metal and bone. There were tense moments as an infection lead to fears Daphne wouldn’t survive, but she pulled through like the trooper she is.
Here she is cuddling up with her mum to watch her ‘screen debut’:
