Narwhal the rescue puppy has happiness written all over her face. And a second ‘tail’. Yes, she’s a unicorn puppy. Here’s how she came to be so remarkable...

The other important news is that Narwhal (named after the unicorn of the sea) is already in high demand and will be rehomed with ease to the perfect human family. Ensuring this special girl can live the fairytale life she’s always dreamed of...
