A duck who faced being put down after fracturing a leg has been given a new lease of life thanks to a specially-made sandal, her owner said.
Lucky the duckling faced a bleak future following an accident which left one foot pointing in the wrong direction when it healed.
Undeterred, owner Allison Morgan, 44, from the Lliswerry area of Newport, south Wales, decided to get a second opinion and, in the meantime, enlist the services of a local cobbler Kelvin Reddicliffe to aid the bird’s recovery. Lucky now has a set of specially made shoes.
