Dogs love balls… we just didn’t realize how much.
A 39-year-old man in America woke up to a very nasty surprise when he realised the stray dog he had rescued a few weeks previous had chewed off his testicle.
The Arkanas man, who is paralysed from the waist down, described how he felt a "burning pain" in his mid section, which caused him to wake early Monday morning.
When the unnamed man investigated further he discovered his “small white, fluffy dog” sitting between his legs covered in blood.

KAIT8 reports that the paralysed man was taken to a local medical centre where he was treated for his injuries and unfortunately for the dog that would be the last testicle he would consume.
