Narwhal the Magical Unicorn Puppy

Once in a while, I read about unicorn-related news and phenomena around the World. Peculiar unicorn news just reached me; an animal rescue center in Missouri called Mac’s Mission has rescued a “unicorn puppy” called “Narwhal”. “Narwhal the magical unicorn puppy” has an extra tail on his forehead, but he also has a normal tail.

The poor puppy was abandoned, but fortunately, the animal rescue center saved him when he was 10 weeks old. Mac’s Mission center mostly adopts animals with special needs.

The Extra Tail Doesn’t Cause Narwhal Any Pain.

Narwhal was X-rayed, and the X-rays showed the extra tail isn’t attached to anything, and it doesn’t have any bones in it. Therefore, Narwhal is not able to wag the tail on his forehead.

Fortunately, the extra tail doesn’t cause Narwhal any pain. It doesn’t seem to have any physical purpose, but because it’s not harming Narwhal, the vets don’t see any reason to remove the mystery tail.

The “Unicorn Puppy” Was Found with His Father.

Narwhal the unicorn puppy was found with an older dog that is believed to be his father. The potential dad has been named “Papa Smurf”. Papa Smurf is a beagle terrier mix. Narwhal does look quite a bit like a beagle, doesn’t he? Narwhal probably has some dachshunds blood too.

Apart from frostbites and getting puppy worm medicine, Narwhal has been completely healthy. He’s a happy and playful little puppy. Nobody knows what exactly happened to Narwhal and his father, or who abandoned them, but now their future looks much brighter.

The News About the “Unicorn Puppy” Went Viral.

As soon as the news about Narwhal the unicorn puppy was released, the story went viral on social media. The little-known Mac’s Mission animal rescue center suddenly got a lot of attention. This is good for them because publicity helps their important work for animals.

The extraordinary little unicorn puppy Narwhal soon got many online fans, and thousands of people wanted to adopt him. However, Rochelle Steffen, the founder of Mac’s Mission, expresses her concern that if someone would adopt Narwhal, the new owner might want to have the extra tail removed.

For now, Narwhal is staying at the rescue center, so that they can monitor him for a little longer. Narwhal will get vaccinated and the team wants to make sure the “unicorn horn” will not cause him any harm later.

Why Does Narwhal Have a “Unicorn Horn”?

The vet who examined Narwhal is not sure why he has an extra tail on his forehead. It is believed this might be a case of puppy absorption (canine fetal resorption). This means a case when a pregnant female dog has one or several fetuses disintegrate in her uterus early in the pregnancy.

The remaining siblings in the uterus can take in part of the fetal remains. This is called “vanishing twin” syndrome. So, the extra tail on Narwhal’s forehead could be remnants of his sibling that dissolved in his mother’s womb.

Narwhal the Magical Unicorn Puppy Proves It: Unicorns Exist.

Narwhal proves it: Unicorns exist. He may be an extraordinary unicorn and an extraordinary puppy, but unicorns and puppies come in different forms. And that’s what Narwhal the unicorn puppy is all about; he’s different, yet everybody loves him. It’s OK to be different. In fact, that’s what makes you so awesome! This is true regardless of whether you’re a puppy, a unicorn, a narwhal, or a human.

Mac’s Mission Fell in Love with Narwhal.

The founder of Mac’s Mission, Rochelle Steffen, says she has fallen in love with Narwhal, and so has the whole crew of Mac’s Mission. They simply can’t let go of their special “unicorn dog”. Steffen herself will keep Narwhal.

Narwhal, now 11 weeks old, has a rare birth defect; he has an extra tail on his forehead. The extra tail looks like a unicorn horn, which has brought Narwhal his name, and the nickname “magical unicorn puppy”.

The extra tail doesn’t cause Narwhal any pain. Narwhal is not able to wag the extra tail, because it doesn’t have any bones in it. His “unicorn horn” consists of just skin. The little puppy doesn’t even seem to notice the tail on his face.

Steffen wasn’t originally willing to have a puppy, and the plan was to give Narwhal to adoption. However, Steffen changed her mind when things got really crazy and Narwhal’s life was threatened.

Death Threats and $2 Million Offered for Narwhal

Thousands of people wanted to adopt Narwhal, and you can’t blame them. Who doesn’t want a unicorn puppy? Well, some people didn’t; Steffen received several hate messages and death threats aimed at the little puppy. Someone wanted to kill Narwhal because according to this person, he wasn’t a “God’s creature”. Another hate message sender called Narwhal’s extra tail a “Satan’s horn”.

There was also a group of people who wanted “Narwhal the unicorn puppy” so much, that they thought they could buy him with money. The biggest offer for Narwhal was $2 million. An executive from New York was willing to pay $7,000 and pick up Narwhal with a private jet.

The small animal shelter that operates with donations could have used the $2 million, but Steffen says Narwhal is not for sale, and the money wouldn’t ensure he would get a good home.

Some people turned up at the animal shelter unannounced, demanding to adopt Narwhal. Things got so crazy that Steffen decided to adopt Narwhal herself to ensure his safety. Of course, her decision made some people angry and jealous, and she received some hate messages again.

An Upcoming Star of “Different Is Awesome” Campaign

Narwhal now has a permanent home, but in the future, the unicorn puppy won’t be just another pet dog. His specialty will be put to good use. Narwhal will serve as a spokesdog for a new “Different is awesome” campaign. He’s also going to be trained as a therapy dog.

So, “Narwhal the unicorn puppy” seems to have a good future ahead of him. He has already helped other dogs too; some rescue dogs at Mac’s Mission have found a new home, thanks to the publicity Narwhal has brought to the rescue center.
