5-Legged Pup Rescued From Freak Show..

[Noahs ARK]

A five-legged puppy was saved from life in a Coney Island freak show thanks to a kindhearted Southerner who paid $4,000 for the pooch.

Allyson Siegel, 45, of Charlotte, N.C., outbid a Brooklyn freak show operator to buy the pup because she couldn't bear the thought of the Chihuahua-terrier mix ending up at the sideshow that featured disfigured animals, the Charlotte Observer reported.

Her saviour already has her surgery scheduled and plans to give her to her sister afterwards. I think it is a happy ending to a tragedy that never happened thanks to this woman outbidding the "freak" show.
