The three-year-old bulldog Bella Mae was sniffing round a backyard pond with two other dogs when she spooked the thorny creature, that came to drink some water from the pond at the backyard of her owners' house.
The porcupine spiked all three animals, but Bella Mae took the brunt of the attack, according to owners Jerry and Allison Noles.

Bella Mae is now recovering from surgery
