Puppy survives being flushed down the loo

A one-week old puppy has survived after accidentally being flushed down a toilet in London, UK, and being trapped in a drain for four hours.

Four year old Daniel Blair, of Northolt in west London, was attempting to wash the dog on Sunday after it had become muddy during a walk in the garden.

But the animal was swept away and got trapped in a waste pipe.

Daniel's mother, Alison Blair, called specialist drain firm Dyno-Rod who managed to locate the dog, which was by then 18m away from the house, using specialist camera equipment.

Neighbours were asked not to flush their toilets lest the unfortunate creature be washed into the main sewer, from where it would be impossible to rescue it.

Plumber Will Craig then managed to nudge the puppy towards a manhole cover from which it was plucked to safety.

The puppy has now been named 'Dyno' in honour of his rescuers.

Daniel Blair has meanwhile apologised, and promised not to do it again.
