Poor Dog Tied To Short Rope For 7 Years Is Finally Saved
Dogs are social animals and need stimulation, so tying them to a small house is just animal cruelty.
Unfortunately, Black had to endure this harsh reality for 7 long years before he was finally rescued.
Rescuers come to the rescue
One day, rescuers heard about Black, a dog who had been chained and malnourished for most of his life .
They were shocked and rushed to rescue him, determined to change his fate.
When they found him, he was so skinny he could barely move and his feeding bowl was a shovel.
Black was scared and defensive; he didn't understand that these people were there to help him.
A difficult start
Rescuers spent two hours calming him down, offering him food and slowly gaining his trust.
It was difficult, but eventually Black understood that these people were not a threat but were there to save him.
"The poor dog took one last look at his owner and felt sad because he did not know what was going to happen" rescuers tell us.
Veterinarian and recovery
Rescuers faced a challenge when the owner demanded money for Black's release.
They agreed and took him to a veterinarian.
The veterinarian determined that Black was anemic and severely malnourished, and in addition, ticks were causing extra pain.
Black received a blood transfusion, an IV to help him recover and a warm bath.
"He had never really felt what it was like to be loved and cared for, so he was a little relieved to finally know what it was like," the rescuers note.
A new beginning
Black's recovery took three months, but progress was visible.
He gained weight, his hair grew back and most importantly, his mood improved.
Despite spending 7 years in the harshest conditions, this sweet dog finally gets to experience the wonders of life, thanks to his rescuers.
Hope for the future
Although Black has not yet found his forever home, there is hope.
Rescuers believe a loving family will soon come along and take him to his new home and give him the happiness he deserves.
