This story isn’t an easy one to tell. We also strongly suggest that discretion is used when watching the video below. The story does end happily. However, the dog goes through quite a bit to get there. A man and woman were driving down a busy road when they saw a figure lying on the shoulder. They pulled over immediately.
The figure was an injured dog. Someone had left him there with a serious head wound and a badly fractured leg. As if they were remorseful, they placed his head on a cardboard box and covered him with a blanket. The couple was mortified. Who could leave a precious dog like that?
They loaded him carefully into their vehicle and drove straight to a vet clinic. The dog was struggling. He was in a lot of pain. The woman sat with him and spoke softly to him as she waited for his pain medication to kick in.
The vet cleaned his head wound and then scheduled him for surgery. His leg needed his immediate attention if he’d ever walk again. The dog, despite all he had been through, was so sweet and patient. He held nothing against humans even though he was treated so unfairly. He was prepped for surgery. He was so brave!
Once he woke up from surgery, the vet gave the couple the good news! He did great. His recovery would be long and it’s still ongoing but everyone is confident that he will live a full and happy life. The couple decided to adopt him and they are currently doing all they can to pay for his hefty vet bills.
We are so relieved that this dog was found in time and by the right people. There is never an excuse to leave an animal behind. We are disgusted by his owner’s actions but in the end, the dog prevailed. Let’s send this pup all of our love and well wishes.
