Meet the Little Magical Furry Unicorn
Who is Narwhal the Rescue Puppy?
Narwhal is was found wandering in the cold with another older dog. The two were rescued by Mac’s Mission, an animal rescue in Jackson, Missouri. They immediately noticed the puppy’s remarkable feature – an extra tail growing out of his forehead. Instead of giving him some mythical name, they decided to name him after an actual creature that also resembles unicorn – the Narwhal. That’s how he got his name.
Due To His Tail Narhwal The Rescue Puppy Is Now An Internet Star
As soon as Mac’s Mission posted the first photos of Narwhal on their Facebook page, people instantly noticed the puppy’s exceptional peculiarity. Dubbed as the ‘Little Magical Furry Unicorn’ on social media, he quickly gained public attention. Since then, the page recieves lots of comments and questions from astonished people. The most popular question asks if he can wag his forehead tail. According to his caretakers, his extra tail on his forehead is idle and it doesn’t wag at all. Mac’s Mission also explained that the 10-week-old puppy has an unusual birth defect which is the cause of the extra tail. People were worried whether this defect could adversely affect his health.
