It’s unclear why someone heartlessly abandoned a mother dog and her litter on a remote dirt road, enclosed in a bag, towards the end of last month. However, what we do know is that because of compassion, they were all rescued.
Josiane Almeida, a compassionate animal rescuer hailing from Lagoa da Prata, Brazil, received an alert about a group of dogs in dire need of help. Along with her husband, she rushed to the site, but was left shaken by the deplorable conditions in which the dogs were living. In a heartfelt online post, Almeida described it as one of the worst cases of mistreatment she had ever witnessed. A mother dog, who was unwell, was tied up alongside her puppies, who had been cruelly thrown into a sack and abandoned in a desolate area. The pitiable little family had been stranded there for a considerable period of time.
Initially, the mother dog was apprehensive when Almeida approached, but she soon realized that the rescuer was there to assist them. One of her puppies was standing by her side, while the remaining three were confined in the sack. It was a heartrending sight, and Almeida knew that she had to act fast to save these innocent lives. This marked the turning point in their story, and things began to look up.
The litter of four puppies seemed to be in a pitiable state as they appeared weak and famished, and their mother dog seemed to be struggling with an unidentifiable health problem. Nonetheless, the good news is that they are now under the care of compassionate individuals who can nurse them back to health.
Almeida took the dogs to her residence for some much-needed nourishment, hydration and relaxation following their traumatic experience.
Almeida eventually sought assistance from the local veterinarian for the puppies’ well-being. The vet determined that the puppies were healthy while their mother would require prompt remedy due to a cancerous growth. Almeida then reached out to her social media followers for financial aid to cover the costly chemotherapy treatment, which was graciously provided by her friends and supporters.
The first phase of treatment for the mother dog has commenced, and it appears that she’s responding positively. This is most likely due to the fact that her puppies are secure and receiving attention. Eventually, all the dogs will be ready for adoption into caring families. The dogs have many reasons to appreciate their current situation. Almeida, on the other hand, is equally grateful.
In the past, this particular family was left to die, suffocated in a bag. However, with the grace of God, I was able to rescue them and now they live a comfortable life with me. I am grateful for this chance to save them and give them a better life.
