The corgi's owner, Jarmo Korhonen, a 38-year-old researcher, bought Nekku from a breeder and instantly fell in love with her. As he told Tyla, "Being fluffy is a genetic error with corgis, but Nekku also has two noses, one eye and two united vertebrae on her back." Jarmo also owns another two corgis - Niisku-Neiti and Karkki - who live with Nekku, and the three of them are stunning and thriving.

There was a lot of concern abuot Nekku when Jarmo bought her. He explained that "The breeder said that she wouldn't survive long, or would have plenty of difficulties in future," and the "vets were very suspicious about Nekku's development and they proposed euthanasia as a solution - but I didn't want to let that happen." On top of all that, Jermo explained that Nekku has "problems with understanding 3D perspective" that used to cause her to bump into other dogs and hit her head on things. Despite all of the expected difficulties, Jarmo decided to keep her, and now, she is 8 years old and living her absolute best life with a loving family.

"The breeder also thought that nobody would accept Nekku, and they had to put her down but I couldn't even think about the idea that she couldn't find a safe home," said Jermo. Of course, we would have most likely predicted that everyone would love a doggy like Nekku, because who wouldn't? And in this case, we would have been right."If we take Nekku for a city walk, it is impossible to just walk. We have to stop every now and then to answer questions and comments about Nekku's nose, eye and fluffy fur - everybody loves her unique appearance," shared Jarmo, and we are more than overjoyed to hear that Nekku is loved by all.

Absolutely adorably, "Nekku often gets sticks and grass stuck in between her two noses," garnering even more attention from the people outside. Jermo shared that "[s]ome say that her name should be Beretta because her nose looks like a double-barrelled shotgun," and... we're inclined to agree. Her nose does look like an incredibly cute, not lethal in the slightest double-barreled shotgun.

"It's been a miracle that this funky, fluffy creature exceeded expectations, even with her own cute and weird way," Jermo said. "Luckily we had a chance to give her a fancy corgi life in the countryside," and "[s]he made it loud and clear to everybody pretty soon, that she would make it!" We could not be happier to hear that this little fluffy fighter is prospering.
