Wounds So Deep, He Placed Himself In A Dark Corner & Accepted His Pained Demise
It’s hard to imagine someone else’s suffering. Especially a stray dog who’s used to struggling to survive. This dog had been through such horror but his life was about to change. For the better!
Animal lovers who volunteer their time to help those in need, rushed to the scene when they received a call about a dog close to death. The caller said that she had no idea how he was still alive. The dog was missing most of his face. Maggots had crawled deep into the infected tissue, making the wounds larger.
The rescuers from Animal Aid picked him up and carried him to their vehicle. They raced off to the medical center to get him immediate treatment. First, the dog was sedated. Then they performed a thorough exam without causing him further pain.
The veterinarian pulled the maggots out and cut away as much necrotic tissue as he could. He then irrigated the wounds and administered IV antibiotics and pain medication. The poor pup was in better shape but it would be a long road if he’d recover. His biggest obstacle now was to beat any infection that should arise.
Miraculously, the little dog warrior beat all the odds. Meet Teddy Bear today! It took three months but this doggy survivor is in excellent health. He has permanent scars but he’s still so beautiful. Don’t you agree?
Teddy Bear LOVES his caregivers. And they, of course, love him too!
Because of Teddy Bear’s extensive medical issues, he will likely remain at the Animal Aid sanctuary for life. But that’s okay! Teddy has a ton of human and doggy friends who love to spend time with him. It’s hard to find forever homes in this part of India for pets with special needs but all of Animal Aids’ rescues can remain at the sanctuary for their entire lives. They get excellent care and have lots of fun playing together.
We are so grateful Teddy Bear was saved in the nick of time! Watch his story below and don’t forget to share– Animal Aid operates on donations from wonderful folks like you! Here’s to a happy life, Teddy Bear! XOXO
