Terry Morgan, 66, says he was “very upset” when he lost a 500-pound watch (about R$1,890). That's until he heard the object's alarm go off... inside his dog Charlie, a Newfoundland breed. Hearing the familiar sound near Charlie, Morgan was excited thinking he would finally find the watch. “First, I thought Charlie was lying on top of the clock. It wasn't until I turned it around that I realized I was inside it,” says Morgan. The owner immediately took Charlie to the vet, who reported the need for surgery to remove the watch from the dog. “But when he saw the anesthetic injection, he was so freaked out that he coughed until he put out his watch,” Morgan said.
