Puppy Survives Four-Mile Drive In Car Engine

A south Florida couple made a surprising discovery after finding a puppy trapped under the bonnet of their car.

Rescuers removed one of the vehicle's wheels before they were able to pry the stray dog from between the steering mechanism and an axle.

Mike Jachles, Broward Sheriff Fire Rescue spokesman, said the puppy must have have travelled "anything from four, five or 10 miles".

He added: "They realised the engine wasn't purring. In fact, it was actually running a little 'rough'."

The dog - hot and exhausted - survived the ordeal unscathed.

It is unknown how the animal got into the engine.

Aww, what an adorable little puppy. So happy the puppy survived this awful ordeal. Bless the rescuers for helping get the puppy to safety.

At least the puppy survived.

That sucks. Glad to hear the puppy survived the encounter however. Although he might need some help after that. That must be traumatizing
