OKLAHOMA CITY — An Oklahoma City rescue is looking after a special puppy after it was born with what appears to be a third ear.

Trip was taken in by Mutt Misfits, a rescue group that takes in animals with illnesses, injuries and special needs. The rescue is working to raise money for a CT scan to take a closer look at Trip's extra ear.

His rescuer, Heather Hernandez, said Trip has a few health issues like seizures and balance problems, and she hopes the CT scan will provide some answers.

"We can tell it's more than skin," she said. "It's not just like a skin tag, but what exactly it leads to only the CT is going to tell us."
