NM basset hound eats $4,500 wedding ring (9:38 a.m.)

ALBUQUERQUE - A New Mexico couple has found their suspect in the disappearance of a $4,500 wedding ring -- their 10-month old basset hound.

KOB-TV reports (http://bit.ly/zPYUJc) that a veterinarian recently removed the ring from the dog named Coraline after X-rays showed that the ring lodged deep in her stomach and wasn't coming out on its own. The veterinarian knock Coraline out then fed an instrument down her throat into her stomach to get the ring back.

Albuquerque resident Rachelle Atkinson said she and her husband Scott had searched everywhere for the expensive ring, until Coraline started to look guilty.

The vet said basset hounds have tendency of eating rocks.

Rachelle says she now hides her $4,500 ring out of sight while Coraline is off munching away at anything she can find.
