We will never tire of denouncing and speaking out against acts of injustice and abuse toward dogs. Especially when they are so neglected that their mere skeletal appearance, on the verge of starvation, demands immediate help and intervention.
There are inhumane people who are capable of mistreating animals , but there are also those who understand that they are living beings that need to be cared for and respected as such.
This was experienced firsthand by a group of dogs who were left to their fate by their so-called owner , in such a physical condition that it was pitiful just to look at them.
Fifteen Great Danes that should have been majestic were reduced to nothing more than skin and bones.
In Pathum Thani, about 40 kilometers from Bangkok in Thailand, the owner of fifteen Great Dane dogs left them alone without any care or attention, he had been feeding them very poorly until he stopped doing so completely.
The animals were extremely thin ; they had lost so much weight that their bones clearly stood out over the skin attached to their bone structure.
Just seeing the dogs in such extreme languor is very painful.
Volunteers from Watchdog Thailand were alerted and immediately went to the site where the farm was located, the sight they found was truly depressing .
As soon as they took them in their arms they could feel with their hands each protruding bone.
The dogs were locked in cages and all suffered from severe malnutrition. With great dedication and diligence, they provided the dogs with food and water in an attempt to recover them.
Even feeding them in any way could be life-threatening because their stomachs were no longer accustomed to receiving food.
Relatives of the owner live near the farm, and they told the organization that the place had been used as a dog breeding center for a long time, but it was closed because the owner couldn’t sustain it financially and decided to leave the defenseless dogs completely abandoned.
We will never be able to understand why there is so much evil and negligence against the most innocent.
Nui, the 50-year-old woman who worked as a housekeeper, said that a relative of the dog breeder asked her to take care of the place, but she, alarmed by the situation in which the Great Danes were found , was forced to inform the animal protection institution about what was happening.
Fortunately, something could still be done to save them from death.
It was also learned that due to negligence and carelessness, a dog and her two puppies died in a cage.
Their skeletons on display sparked a wave of outrage and helplessness on social media.
Fortunately, the animals were finally receiving the care they always deserved. But the best was yet to come…
When King Maha Vajiralongkorn, known as Rama X, learned of the case, he ordered his family to adopt them and finance their recovery.
A true king who above all preaches by example
“We have received a royal order from His Majesty the King. His Royal Highness has ordered a delegation to adopt the dogs from the Animal Welfare Division,” said a spokesperson for Watchdog Thailand.
The lucky little furry ones who suffered so much could not believe that nothing less than a king would be their new human dad.
And best of all, the king assured that the heartless man will face charges of animal cruelty.
What a wonderful ending to their terrifying past! Their pain will be behind them, and in their new home they will be able to live the happiness they deserve.
Remember that animals are creatures that accompany you and give you sincere and unconditional love. They don’t deserve such treatment.
