    Viva, Viva Viagra!!!!!

    Dog saved by Viagra

    A dying dog has had his life restored thanks to Viagra.

    Bentley's owner David Roach from East Finchley, London took the pooch to the vet after lungworm spread to a heart artery. Shortly after their arrival the dog suffered from heart failure.

    However, vet Ben Harris used Viagra to try to relax the blood vessels and it worked.

    Bentley will now have to use Viagra for the rest of his life - but luckily for him it won't have the usual effect.

    Mr Roach told the Metro: "He was neutered when he was very little, so he's never had a very active reproductive life."

    I guess I don't have to worry about my leg being attacked should I visit this house?

    It is good the doctor realized the other use this medication could have, and used it to good effect.

    How did the dog get lungworm and have it untreated long enough to get to his heart? Poor pooch!

    Thank God for good vets! I'm glad the vet was innovative enough to try a non-conventional treatment. Hope the pup feels better soon!

    Viagra was initially developed as a heart medicine, but demonstrated a VERY interesting side effect in clinical trials!
