Dog Tied Up In Woods With No Water, No Food, Left To Suffer!


No one likes to be on their own but to be left to suffer, without water or food, this German Shepard barked and she desperately tried to call for help! Tied up in a remote place, how long would she really survive without food or water, she waited in vain for her owner to return and get her, but every moment was a disappointment. She barked and barked, desperate to not give up hope, to still imagine that she would be heard eventually by anyone. Then a nearby resident, near enough to just about hear the barking, heard her frantic cries for help! The animal control officer, Alex Kelly, said: – “I got a call from one resident who said that there was a dog tied somewhere in the back of their building, and the dog was hollering and screaming all night long”
“…So I asked her, ‘How long has the dog been hollering, and barking?’ And she said, ‘I’m going to be honest with you, the dog’s been back there at least three days.’”
Alex arrived pretty fast to meet the person who called it in, as they went to check out what was going on, there was no dog?
Looking all around Alex saw a head peeking out, behind a bush across the river ahead of them.
Alex Crossed the river and looked all around the apartment complex, but there was no one who seemed to admit to knowing anything about the dag.
Alex said:
“When I got around there and went in the back, nobody wanted to come out, nobody wanted to say whose the dog was. They didn’t want to get involved”
Alex found after a long search, the dog who was in a terrible state, very scared and shaky too. She was tied to the tree with a thick cable and a plastic dog house.
As he got close to her, Alex saw that the cable was wrapped her legs too, adding pressure to her leg, it was awful.
Alex said:
“Had it been another day or so, the circulation in her leg would have been cut off, and she probably would have ended up losing the limb”
Alex slowly gained her trust and captured her with a neck snare to hold her so he could free her from the ties.
He also disposed of the crate and dog bowls, no one was going to use them for this again he must have thought!
Alex said:
“I put on a leash, and she was perfect …She’s a nice dog. She’ll make someone a nice pet.”
She was given the name Genesis to mark a new beginning, after such an awful start to her life, she was taken to the Associated Humane Popcorn Park Shelter.
The shelter wrote in a Facebook post:
“It’s obvious that Genesis has been bred in the past and likely made her own a great deal of money with her adorable puppies, yet this is how she was repaid”
“…That is all a thing of the past now, as we will help her to put her terrible past out of her mind and focus on her future.”
After all her bad treatment Genesis still loves people, she is super eager to show her love to someone, she is a little shy, who could blame her for that though!
The shelter wrote:
“Within minutes of knowing you, she nudges her head against your hand and wants you to pet her …If you should stop, she’ll nudge you again for more attention.”
Very soon after a family fell in love with her and they were a really perfect match, well done Genesis, you can have your life back and the second chance you deserve!









Five Puppies Went Through A Different Kind Of Hell, Now Saved But They Still Cry When Humans Come

We cannot imagine the terror that these dogs feel, trapped in a cage, waiting to be the next meal for a human.
Many dogs saved from South Korean dog meat farms need a lot of time to heal and trust humans again. However, these five puppies went through a different kind of hell, and cannot simply forget their past even after months of rescue.
Whenever someone entered their kennel, they cowered, shook, and cry, falling over each other.
The puppies had to be tranquilized to be spayed and neutered. In South Korea alone, around 2 million dogs are killed every year to become meat.
However, many organizations are working to save the dogs destined to be a meal inside and outside South Korea.
The kind of terror animals feel when they’re waiting in a cage to be someone’s next meal doesn’t just disappear when they’re rescued.

In fact, it seeps right into their bones, making it hard for them to know when they’re finally safe.
We’ve seen too many cases of puppies arriving in the U.S. to begin their lives — and then just freezing up completely.
Buying the animals from the market does not stop the people from raising more dogs for consumption.
They’ll sell their current stock to you, turn around and raise more to sell for the Chinese table. You need to educate these people not to eat dog meat.
In South Korea, around 2 million dogs are killed every year for the meat trade; an industry that people like Kim, through Save Korean Dogs, has been chipping away at in recent years.
Sadly, according to the Animal Welfare Institute, the market still adds up to about 100,000 tons of dog meat every year. And a world of pain that can be hard for even the survivors to put behind them.
But even these puppies will eventually find themselves in real homes. After all, we’ve seen countless cases of dogs going from a cramped cage in South Korea …
How do they know helping hands aren’t the hurting kind? So sad. How can anyone mistreat these babies? Anyone who mistreats animals should be punished.





Abandoned Outside A Shelter This Dog Hoped All Night Long To Be Found.

We have many shelters is different states, and the majority of these shelters are pretty busy most of the time, this one shelter, Unleashed Pet Rescue and Adoption, in Mission, Kansas was especially busy.
They were the ones that found her, they saw her in need of help and stepped up to help her that fateful Thursday morning.
She was outside the shelter, really so think you would say that she was emaciated, her breed is a boxer and she was, apart from being terribly thin, a quite typical looking boxer.
The poor girl lay still in one of the garbage bags, inside the bag, while it was full of garbage too!
Rebecca Taylor, from the rescue center, said:
“Tears came right away …We were not sure if [she] … was alive. She could not lift her head.”
Not too far away was another boxer, this one tied up to a pole, he was also very week and he could hardly even move his back legs he was so feeble and weakened.
The workers in the center took both dogs to the vet to be checked, they called the female, hope and quite sweet the male as called Triumph, how lovely!
Taylor said:
“We had to act pretty quickly, considering the condition both of the animals were in …It was heartbreaking.”
As well as being so incredibly thin, Hope had a really serious infection in her elbow, they also saw masses in her brain and adrenal glands too
Triumph, as it turns out, was diagnosed with muscle atrophy in his back legs, seemingly because he had been kept in a cage way too small for him to move around in, poor boy…
The rescue doesn’t know where the two of them came from but all their attention is going to their care and love and getting them fully back to health and ready to be adopted.
Taylor said:
“Some things cannot be explained …So we have to focus on their healing and recovery.”
Hope has been successfully operated on and the surgery has really helped the painful infection in her elbow and the joint.
Triumph has now thankfully gone to a foster home and is going to start some physical therapy too, it will really help to regain his strength in his back legs.
Taylor said:
“Triumph is going to need lots of TLC …It seems our sweet Hope is going to have a longer recovery, and we are listening to the vets as they plan the next steps for her. She is eating on her own; now we need to get her moving.”

Couple Finds Dog Abandoned Next To Dumpster With Note

When a couple noticed a small dog tied outside a store, they didn’t think much of it until they read the note attached to him. It was heartbreaking, and they wanted to help find his owners.
The note said, “Free Pup. My name is Scooter. Owner went to jail today.”
They took photos of the dog and posted them online.
They were hoping someone would recognize him and help. They caught the attention of Paula Langford, who runs South Eastern Homeless Animals. She decided to take the dog in and help.
She said, “I just reached out to them and said, ‘I’ll take the dog. I have a microchip scanner, I’ll get him scanned and validate the story first. And then we’ll get him wherever it is that he belongs.”
She met the couple at a gas station later that day to get the dog.
That’s when she realized that this was someone’s beloved pet. She explained, “As soon as I saw him, I knew this was a loved pet. He was clean, he was flea-free. He was abandoned with an expensive carrying case for him, an expensive collar, a bag of grain-free dog food.”
When she held the dog, it was clear that he knew he could trust her.
He was nervous but started to relax the more he was around her. She felt like his owners would have never left him alone and wondered who was behind the abandonment.
She said, “He was a bit nervous but very sweet and very loving. He wanted to cuddle. It was kind of precious, because on the way home, he kind of laid his head on my chest and just did this big sigh, and kind of melted into me and went back to sleep. It was obvious that this was a snuggly, well-loved, well-cared-for dog. He wasn’t just a throwaway.”
She started looking for a way to reunite him with his family.
The dog did have a microchip, and she tried to call the number attached to it, but it was disconnected. She also found out that the dog had previously been found in Colorado and again in Florida in 2015 and 2016. He had made his way to South Carolina this time.
Langford said, “We discovered that he is originally from Colorado. We tried to contact the number on the microchip, but the number was disconnected. The microchip company informed me that he’d been found in 2015 in Colorado, and then again in 2016 in St. Petersburg, Florida and that he’d been returned to the owner, but that’s all he knew. And then, all of a sudden, he’s in South Carolina!”

She found out that his owner had been arrested in a parking lot near the store. He had hoped his friends would care for his dog, but his friends betrayed him.
Langford explained, “When he was arrested, his main concern was that his dog did not go to the shelter, so he handed his belongings, his money, his backpack, his carrying bag, and his beloved dog to his friends and asked them to ensure that the dog was safe.”
She informed the cops, and they are working to bring the people who left the dog in the store to justice. Langford added, “They have issued an arrest warrant for those two individuals for the abandonment.”
Langford eventually found the owner’s mother and decided she needed to reunite them. She lived in Colorado but agreed to meet Langford in Nebraska. It was a long trip with over 24 hours of driving for Langford. She also had to leave her young children to make the trip. Still, she knew it was the right thing to do.
She said, “It was a very touching and emotional reunion, and it was quite obvious that Scooter was very happy to see his family again. I am 100 percent confident in my decision to reunite this beloved pup with his family.”
Langford is dedicated to helping animals.
She thinks it is heartbreaking to see them scared, alone and neglected. She is glad she made the choice to work so hard to reunite this dog with his family, and she hopes that one day, his owner will get out of jail and be reunited with him as well.
She said, “When an animal is found on the streets, the ultimate hope is that the animal has a loving family looking for them. However, in more cases than not, that is not the outcome. In Scooter’s situation, he was a loved and treasured member of a wonderful family. And while it was emotional for me to say goodbye, I have no doubt that he is exactly where he belongs.”

A Couple Confused and Upset After Dog Was Accidentally Put To Sleep

We all know that one day we must have some kind of difficult situation as dog lovers, to have our pet put to sleep if he is in pain, but this couple was baffled why their dog was euthanized!
They had tears in their eyes and while they held their cell phone to show a photo of their beloved dog, Tony Wand said: – “This is a photo of my dog, it was taken yesterday before yesterday.”

Tony took the picture of his lovely sweet doggie, called Moses like we all do, but he had no clue at the time it would be one of the last he would take of the poor doggie…
A few weeks before there was a maintenance worker that came to Tony’s backyard, unannounced, Moses bit the guy, he was doing his job and protecting their home, simply put!
The family was then ordered to take Moses to the Animal COntrol at Tazewell County, which they did, of course!
Jennifer Wang said:
“They said that they would like to keep him for 10 days under quarantine to make sure that everything was safe with him”
Then the Thursday morning the couple got a call from a worker at the animal control, he confused Moses with another dog and put him to sleep, the family was both speechless and shocked and very confused.
Tony said:
“I asked him why did you still euthanize him? He told me he was not thinking, he said he didn’t verify, he just went ahead and did it.”
Tazewell County Animal Control said:
“On August 7th, Tazewell County Animal Control mistakenly euthanized a dog that was being held in our facility on a 10-day bite quarantine.”
“Tazewell County truly regrets this error. Tazewell County will be reviewing policies and procedures to prevent any such occurrence from happening in the future.”
The family has pictures of the doggie in his favorite spot and some with his best friends too be that just reminds them of their pain in how he was taken from them before his time.
Jennifer said:
“If he needed to be euthanized which he wasn’t, he deserved to be with his family …We should’ve been the last face he seen, instead of a stranger poking him with a stick.”
The family is now trying to work out what they will do now, they are reaching out to lawyers and hoping that someone will take their case, but they’ve had no response as yet…
Let’s help them in their battle and SHARE this story and maybe the public support can help them to be heard and get justice for their beloved dog, this procedure certainly needs to change!


Family Say They Can’t Stand To Watch Their Dog Die, So They Dumped Him In The Trash?!

When our beloved pets ‘actually’ pass away, some of us like to bury them in a happy place, some to keep their ashes, or scatter them, because they are in a better place in heaven, but this one family did a really shocking thing…
This callous thing they did is just so incredible to even contemplate, if only they thought that someone might do the same to them, ‘maybe’ they would realize how awful it was, surely?
A mother and her daughter, aged 74 and 32 years old respectively were booked by the police for what they did to their family dog, while he was still alive!
This February the Cheonan Dongnam Police Department revealed that they have booked both mother and daughter for violating animal protection laws.
During one evening on 29th January, the two women put their Cocker-Spaniel in a trash bag and threw him into the dumpster at a garbage collection center located in Cheonan.
The police reported that the Cocker-Spaniel was the family pet for around 15 years in total, the mother claimed that the dog has been weak and was really showing signs of his age and loss of consciousness.
She said the police:
“I couldn’t watch it dying so even though it was alive, I had to throw it out.”
About thirty or so minutes after the woman left the family dog there in the trash bag, luckily a passerby heard an animal crying for help. The passerby immediately called the police, who responded!
The poor dog, weak and traumatized from his terrible shock of being put in a bad and left alone in the dark cold was rushed to the nearest animal shelter but very sadly passed away a few hours later.

The police tracked down the owners of the animal and after inspecting the CCTV footage at the garbage collection point it didn’t take them long to find them.
The daughter reportedly cried after dumping her pet in the trash there at the center, and the dog showed no signs of physical abuse.
The family, however, will face punishment, it’s completely clear that they have done this to the dog while he was still alive, what an awful way to go at the end, at least, even though he died he had a little human comfort at the end, the poor doggie!
SHARE and shame these terrible people, this is not acceptable behavior, at all!





Stray Dog Spent 11 Days With Jug Stuck On His Head

The stray dog was desperate for something to eat. He was sniffing through people’s garbage in Ridgeview, West Virginia, when he found a large plastic jug that once held cheese balls. He stuck his head inside to lick the leftover crumbs, but this led to a predicament — he couldn’t get his head back out.
A few weeks ago, Eva Kordusky, the president and rescue coordinator for Boone Animal Rescue Coalition (B.A.R.C.), got a call about the dog from a postal worker friend who does the mail route in Ridgeview. Locals had seen the dog wandering the area for the last three days, but no one had managed to catch him — and every day that passed was a day the dog couldn’t get food or water.
Kordusky hurried to the spot where the dog had last been seen but didn’t find him.

“He was long gone,” Kordusky told The Dodo. “He was hiding.”
Kordusky tried setting up a humane trap, but quickly realized the fault in this plan.
“Since he had that jug on his head, he couldn’t eat, he couldn’t drink, he couldn’t smell, so the trap didn’t work,” she said.
Days passed, and the dog was still on the loose. Lots of people went out to try and catch him, including a local dog lover named Nikki Bell.

“She was very instrumental in organizing a search party,” Kordusky said. “They went out on Thursday night and were able to discover that he was in a garage.”
It was a local man’s garage. At first, the rescuers thought they could just close the garage door to trap the dog, but the automatic garage door was very slow and loud when it went down, and whenever they tried to lower it, the dog dashed back onto the street before the door closed.



“We almost had him twice, but he didn’t want to be caught, and it was just amazing that even after having his head stuck in that thing for 9 or 10 days, that he had that much strength to just plow through,” Kordusky said.

Luckily, the dog kept returning to the garage, and the rescue team figured out what to do.
“They went out again on Friday,” Kordusky said. “We … knew that he was in a garage. One of our volunteers took a roll of chain-link fencing that we laid in front of the garage where we knew he was hanging out. Then Saturday morning, while he was sleeping …. they slowly crept up [and] put that fencing up. Then the homeowner pulled the garage door shut, and we had him contained.”

“He was scared to death,” Kordusky added. “He felt very vulnerable with that jug on his head, and didn’t know what these humans were all about. Another volunteer — she’s a vet tech, so seasoned with working with uncooperative animals — was able to get that slip lead around his neck, and she brought him a large crate.”
The vet tech took the dog straight to the clinic, where he was sedated and the jug removed. The jug had been over the dog’s head for 11 days.

“It’s amazing that he survived,” Kordusky said. “It really is.”



The dog, who was named Jughead after his fiasco, was released from the clinic the next day, and Kordusky started fostering him. He’ll stay with Kordusky until he’s recovered from a few other medical issues, including Lyme disease and anemia, which were the result of living on the streets.

Boone Animal Rescue Coalition

Jughead may have been shy when he was a loose stray with a jug on his head, but he’s a completely different dog now — and he’s on the market for a forever home.

Boone Animal Rescue Coalition

“He’s a happy-go-lucky dog,” Kordusky said. “He likes people, he likes to meet new people. He’s super friendly. He knows how to sit and give his paw. He takes treats nicely.”

Boone Animal Rescue Coalition

“I’m sure he’d make a great couch potato buddy, but he’d also make a great hiking buddy for an active family,” she added. “He’s a fantastic dog, and he’s going to make someone a great pet.”
