Daily News | Shot in the head, this corgi survived for days before finding care at PSPCA’s Main Line Animal Rescue
Brave and valiant like the legendary king, a little corgi named Arthur who was shot in the head but managed to survive on his own for days is now alive and thriving thanks to his outsized will and the Pennsylvania SPCA’s Main Line Animal Rescue in Chester County.
At first, it was believed the gaping wound on Arthur’s head, which was crusted over with discharge and debris, might have been caused when he shimmied himself under the fence at the farm. X-rays confirmed Arthur had been shot. Miraculously, the bullet missed his brain, but it fragmented into an untold number of pieces, which remain lodged in his jaw to this day, Royer said.
Royer is hopeful Arthur will make a full recovery, but the bullet fragments that remain in his head may have to be removed if they cause problems later down the road. “Unfortunately, as many dogs often will, he did not stay on his own property,” she said. “At that point, he became missing. The owners had apparently reached out to neighbors to ask if they’d seen him, but they didn’t find him.”
“It was a close-range shot,” she said. “Based upon the location of the injury, they had some rudimentary idea of the proper location to shoot a dog, they just did not accurately do so.”
