Dog vs. porcupine? Give the title to the porcupine. Police in Danbury, New Hampshire said a dog that had a run-in with a porcupine ended up with a face full of quills.
But the dog is better now -- and has even been reunited with its owner in New Hampshire.
Police said a Good Samaritan spotted the dog on Route 104 after its owners reported two of their dogs missing. Its face and mouth were covered with porcupine quills.
The police department put a photo of the animal on Facebook, and got flooded with calls asking about the dog's condition.
The dog was taken to a veterinarian, where it took more than four hours to remove the quills.
Police said the dog is doing better now and was reunited with its owner in New Hampshire Monday after a short stay at the vet.
