Blossom, the dog, was discovered by an OrphanPet volunteer in Greece. She had been a stray for weeks, if not months, and had been wandering the streets. The poor puppy was in appalling condition.
Her tail had a chain wire lodged in it that had been there for a long time. Her tail grew enormously bloated as a result of the chain being so firmly wrapped around it.
She was also coated in thousands of ticks, which made matters worse. They performed a blood test and discovered that her blood was extremely thin as a result of the tick bites. She wouldn’t have lasted much longer if they hadn’t saved her. Blossom’s time was running short, and they realized they needed to act quickly to assist her.
They gave her a blood transfusion and ended up having to amputate her tail after bringing her in. They worked diligently and methodically to remove as many ticks as they could one by one, but it took them nearly a week to remove every single dead tick.
Her transformation is absolutely mind-blowing. She is now very healthy and has made new doggy friends along the way. And best of all? She was adopted!
She’s now settled into her forever home and relishing her second shot at life. She would not have lived if this volunteer hadn’t found her and brought her in. Thank heavens for OrphanPet’s kind rescuers!
In the video below, you can see her rescue. It’s simply incredible!
Desperate Puppy Trapped in Slaughterhouse, Pleading for Help with Heartbreaking Eyes
Meet Toby! This story began with a heartbreaking photograph that broke our hearts. Toby was bound and wrapped in a bag, his eyes filled with terror and misery. His life was hanging by a thread, with the fear of execution just minutes away. We realised we needed to move quickly.
We rushed Toby to the vet since his condition was critical. Toby’s ordeal had rendered him paralysed, a defence mechanism, a desperate attempt to protect himself from the horrors of the world. He had clearly lost trust in humanity, and his initial check found no broken bones. The idea of crushed nerves was investigated, but one thing was certain: Toby had suffered greatly.
Toby was extremely resilient despite his pain and terror. He never complained, silently suffering the trials that life had placed upon him. Toby, like any other dog, deserved a chance at a normal existence, in our opinion.
The road to recovery began with acupuncture, and Toby surprised us by being unusually calm and cooperative. The tiny angel gradually began to trust us, and his true beautiful nature began to come through.
Today, Toby exudes happiness. While his walk remains difficult, his eyes tell a different story – one of joy, resilience, and unexpected optimism. His left leg has steadily grown stronger, allowing him to lift his body and take the first steps towards a brighter future.
Many people have been following Toby’s growth, and one generous woman gave him a wheelchair. It was an exciting time for Toby as he relished his newfound freedom. He now runs everywhere, a testament to his tenacity.
But Toby’s adventure does not end there. He continues to undergo acupuncture treatments and benefits from swimming therapy. Every day, he lives a life full of happiness, love, and caring.
It’s hard to believe that just four months ago, Toby’s life was in jeopardy. He might not have lived to see this day if fate had been one minute later. Toby’s story is a testament to the power of kindness, resilience, and second chances. He is a living reminder that every being is deserving of love, care, and the chance to live a life of happiness and purpose. Toby, you genuinely deserve all of the world’s love.
