Incredible moment hero mother dog carries her wounded pup into vet

This is the amazing moment a doting mother dog carried her seriously wounded pup to a vet – ultimately saving its life.

This is the incredible moment a mother dog carries her seriously ill pup into the vets to receive lifesaving treatment.

CCTV captured the stray dog trotting through the rain while gripping the helpless pup in her mouth before dropping it at the door of a veterinary clinic in Turkey, The Sun reports.

One vet quickly noticed the near-dead puppy suffering from hypothermia before bringing it inside for urgent treatment on Monday in the Istanbul Province of Beylikduzu.

The mother pooch is captured following closely behind the medic, who urgently carries the limp pup through the clinic.

In the treatment room, the vets didn’t waste their time as they immediately administered injections to the puppy and blow-dried its soaking wet fur.

Medics found the pup to have a dangerously low heart rate and had to immediately place the little pooch in intensive care, meaning the mother dog had carried her baby in just in time.

Vets simply named the doting dog “Mum”.

She didn’t stray from her baby, as Mum is seen on CCTV remaining incredibly close by while vets worked on the pup on the treatment table.

Veterinarian Baturalp Oghan revealed that the dog had previously given birth to a litter of pups nearby – but most them tragically died.

Animal lovers had even brought in one surviving puppy to the clinic, unaware there was another close by in near-fatal condition.

It’s believed the mum dog found her last remaining puppy before bringing it to the clinic.

Dr Oghan explained that her milk was insufficient, but the clinic was supporting the puppies with additional food.

The dog and her pups are now being cared for at the clinic, where their health is thankfully steadily improving.

Dr Oghan explained just how touched he and the clinic staff were by the mum dog’s determination to save her puppy.

The vet staff also all hope to find a loving home for the dog family once they fully recover from the ordeal.

“Everything is going well so far. The treatment for both the puppy and its sibling will continue for a little longer,” Dr Oghan said.

“During this time, we are not accepting visitors due to their health.

“The mother dog is recovering well.

“Her story has intrigued so many people, she’s a very intelligent and caring dog.

“It shows the love that a mother dog has for her puppies.”
