Puppy with 6 legs to be raised by Buddhist monks
2005-06-21
PORT KLANG: A puppy with two extra legs and a second penis is drawing curious stares at a temple in Pandamaran town near here. The puppy, found by a temple caretaker at the entrance on Thursday morning, is being cared for by the temple committee. Kwang Sung Temple committee member Tee Kim Huat said the caretaker saw the white puppy with dark brown patches sleeping at the temple entrance at 7am. “He lifted the canine to place it elsewhere and was shocked to see that the puppy had six legs! Not only that, the male puppy also had an extra penis,” said Tee.
The other dogs will be envious, he can do two hydrants at once
“We believe someone dumped it at the temple,” he added. However, since it was an unusual dog, devotees felt that it was a bearer of good fortune and named the puppy Ong Fatt (Lucky One), said Tee. The temple committee obtained a dog-rearing permit from the Klang Municipal Council on Friday to allow the caretaker to take care of the puppy at the temple.

#6  When I wuz just a simple fat, dumb, akward country kid (not that I've evolved much since), one of our many cats had trouble giving birth to her kitten, with one head sticking out, and labor being very painful.
A veterinary intervention later, the cause was revealed to be a eight-legged kitten, with two rear ends (and thus two genitalias, one fact that really made laugh one of my youngest sisters, I remember that) and another pair of front paws protubering from its back.
Too bad it was dead, we would have been delighted to keep it around.
My mother never let me bring the body at school, which is a shame.

#4  Interesting. Probably two ova fused at or soon after conception .... in dogs, each embryo ends up with its own sac inside the uterus so the fusion had to have happened prior to the sac forming and attaching to the uterine wall. The embryos are free-floating until then.
