Medical students at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology's (KNUST) Department of Veterinary Medicine have successfully performed a caesarean section on a dog.

A video of the operation, which was shared by the Voice of KNUST, showed the students, who were seven in number, conducting the caesarean section.

One of the students, who was leading the operation, could be seen making an incision on the belly of the pregnant dog.

After the incisions, the student can be seen pulling out the parts of the dog which had the puppies.

At least three puppies were taken out after which the incision was closed.

The female dog, after the operation, could be seen laying comfortably on a movable stretcher.
