dogs might mutate?

from a vet on the edge:

One time a dog was in for a surgical procedure, and it was noted to have a very large mat behind each ear. We shaved them off [...]. The owner was enraged. They thought that the mats were extra ears, and that their dog had a unique mutation that made for four ears. I ask you. Did they not notice that in its original form the dog only had the normal number of ears? Did they think their dog just suddenly decided, as an adult, to grow more ears? It's not a starfish. It's a dog, and dogs don't spontaneously grow extra ears.



this last statment, i am quite ready to believe. but don't try telling me that dogs may not suddenly shoot laser beams from their eyes!
