Six-legged puppy found in Malaysia

Weird, eh?

Six-legged puppy found in Malaysia
June 19, 2005

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia --A puppy with six legs and two penises was found sleeping outside a Chinese temple in a Malaysian town, and devotees are treating the freak find as a good omen, a news report said Sunday.

The furry puppy with brown patches was sleeping at the temple entrance on Thursday morning when it was spotted by a temple caretaker, said the Star newspaper, which published the animal's picture clearly showing the extra two legs and the additional organ.

"He (the caretaker) lifted the canine to place it elsewhere and was shocked to see that the puppy had six legs," the Star quoted the Kwang Sung Temple committee member Tee Kim Huat as saying. The temple is in Pandamaran town, south of Kuala Lumpur near Port Klang.

The puppy, believed to have been left there by someone, is being cared for by the temple committee, Tee said. He said devotees feel that the unusual dog is a bearer of good fortune and have named him Ong Fatt, or the Lucky One.

The temple committee has obtained a dog-rearing permit from the Klang Municipal Council to keep the puppy as a pet.
That is the most bizarre newspaper article I've seen in quite some time... and it's the Boston Globe, not the National Enquirer, so I'm inclined to believe it.

I don't know, but India is on the wrong side of the Bay of Bengal in relation to the location of this puppy.
