An unusual case has been successfully treated at the Auckland Public Hospital, and the subject has shown exceeding gratitude to the medical staff and the nurses ever since his recovery. Spine weeks ago a wee stranger entered the outdoor patients’ room, evidently suffering severely. Despite the fact that the visitor was only a little dog, he was carried away to the surgeons, and examination revealed a broken leg. The injured limb was put into splints, and under kind treatment the dog t has quite recovered. Its gratitude is such that it now refuses to be discharged as cured, and is likely to take up a permanent residence as one of the pets of the hospital staff.
