A curious pup found himself feeling rough over lockdown! 

Alfie a giant schnauzer was rushed into our Westerhope branch earlier this month.  X-rays uncovered that he had eaten 25 golf balls after several walks with his owner!

Alfie had life-saving surgery to remove the 25 golf balls from his abdomen.

We are so pleased that Alfie is recovering well and hope that he stays away from any golf courses in the future.
