“When we stumbled upon this heart-wrenching image of a mother dog and her nine two-week-old puppies abandoned in a blue plastic bin in the parking lot of North Side Baptist Church in Abilene, Texas, it left us outraged.
But thanks to a compassionate individual who shared their photo on social media, the message reached the right people.
When the image circulated online, two selfless volunteers from Paw Angel Animal Rescue immediately came to the rescue of these canines from their dire situation.
“I saw the picture, and it just broke my heart, and I called Angel, and we went and rescued the dogs,” said Misty Boerger, one of the volunteers. “I just don’t know how someone could do that, leaving mama and 2-week-old babies.”
The mama dog, a five-year-old Boxer, was visibly frightened and needed urgent care. She was covered in numerous wounds that were open and continuously draining. The volunteers wasted no time and safely transported the dog family for medical checkups.
Dory, as she’s now known, along with her surviving eight puppies, is thriving in their new foster home and getting healthier day by day. Unfortunately, one of the pups didn’t make it; he had a throat tumor and had to be euthanized.
Paw Angel Animal Rescue has been providing regular updates on Dory and her eight surviving babies. We’re delighted to report that they’re now in good health and are expected to be available for adoption in the near future.
Please share this story with your friends and family to help Dory and her pups find their forever homes. What are your thoughts on this touching story? Share your opinions in the comments below!”
Surviving Neglect: The Harrowing Ordeal of a Dog Abandoned in Agony, Struggling to Endure an Unremedied, Enormous Tumor
In the streets of Chefchauen, Morocco, a little puppy was seen by a group of kind-hearted folks. The puppy experienced a massive growth at his young age, and it was unknown what caused it. They quickly took the puppy into their care and named him Navajo.
Despite being a happy and open little child, Navajo was suffering from diarrhea and refused to eat. He was kept in isolation, and his rescuers were frightened that he could have caught the deadly parvo virus, which is a frequent ailment among stray puppies in Morocco.
Determined to save Navajo’s life, the rescuers traveled hundreds of miles at 4am to get him to a veterinarian. It was revealed that Navajo had a hernia, most likely caused by a strong kick, and that the growth was a result of substantial stress. The procedure was long and hazardous, but the doctor and his colleagues were able to correct Navajo’s hernia and give him a chance to survive.
Navajo had a significant chance of catching the parvo virus, but his rescuers were determined to give him the care and love he needed. They treated him with medications and loving hands for several weeks, and Navajo proved to be a little fighter.
Forty days later, Navajo was a changed puppy. He was healthy, happy, and confident, with only a scar reminding his rescuers of the hardship he had gone through. Navajo’s rescuers were thrilled with his growth and wanted to locate him a loving home where he could live the life he never had.
If you’re interested in adopting Navajo and providing him the love and care he deserves, you may send an email to [email protected]. Navajo’s story is a tribute to the resiliency of animals and the power of love and compassion.
