This Girl Isn't Pregnant, She's Smuggling Her Grandma's Dog Into Hospital. Shhhh, Don't Tell Anyone.

At first glance, this inconspicuous young lady looks like she’s expecting.

Gently cupping her swollen stomach, 21-year-old Shelby Hennick had the perfect disguise.

For all was not as it seemed. Hiding under her large fluffy robe was one excited little pup.

When Shelby’s grandmother had a serious reaction to her medication, she was admitted to hospital.

The veterinary technician from California, USA was devastated to discover her beloved grandma had nearly been left paralysed.

And while she recovered in hospital, Shelby knew the one special thing that would cheer her grandma up – her best friend, 13-year-old Patsy the dog.

So she decided to pull off the most amazing surprise.

She dog-napped the adorable pooch and smuggled her into the hospital to see her doting owner.

As most of us know, animals aren’t allowed in hospital, so Shelby wrapped Patsy in a big blanket to disguise her.

Luckily Patsy didn’t make a noise and Shelby casually walked passed staff, who were unaware of her secret package.

Shelby told the Metro UK: ‘Patsy was quiet the whole time, she actually kept licking my arm. I’m pretty sure one of the nurses had her suspicion, but she walked away! Thank god!’

She added: ‘My sister had a baby about a year ago so I think my grandma thought it was him because when I walked in she went “Ohh you brought the baby” and then I put Patsy down on her lap and she was surprised! Patsy kept crying and couldn’t get close enough. I’m sure it made her day.’

Dogs make everything better! What a paw-some idea!
