Seeing a stray on his own is unpleasant in so many ways. But seeing an injured puppy alone and barely surviving is truly heartbreaking.
One tiny puppy struggled so much in life, even at a young age. He was injured, sick, and starving. Most of all, he was hanging on for dear life.
One fateful day, he heard noises from a nearby yard. Knowing he desperately needed help, he followed the voices while enduring the pain.
This puppy was just a few weeks old. One would only imagine how and why he had to go through such an ordeal.
The onlookers noticed the distraught puppy and saw how malnourished he was. It was pretty obvious that he had been on his own for so long.
The good samaritan then fed him puppy formula. As they took a closer look, they also noticed that he was covered in fleas. Poor baby!
When the rescuers arrived, they cleaned out his maggot-infested wounds. They used a special kind of powder to remove the insects.
The poor puppy let out little shrieks as they tended to his wounds. Seeing his reactions is too sad, but they knew that it was for his own good.
While being treated, another rescuer found the puppy’s siblings. While for the mama dog, she was nowhere to be found.
The rescuers could only speculate what happened to the little puppies. They could be strays that got lost, or their previous owner discarded them.
After weeks of healing and proper care, the tiny puppy recovered. Not only that, but he receives love and attention from his foster parents.
Meanwhile, for the other puppies, they are all well and in good condition. They will soon be in forever homes!
We’re so thankful for the onlookers who took action as soon as they saw the puppy. Keep doing good things!
