A white pitbull was rescued from a house where he was kept through various calamities. The poor little dog weighed less than half what he should for his age, but now his nightmare is over, thanks to the tireless work of a group of much-loved rescuers in Brazil.
A 2-year-old dog was rescued from a house in Betim, in the Metropolitan Region of Belo Horizonte (Brazil). The poor animal, which had a sad and lost look, was lying on the ground without hope or energy, as if waiting for its definitive end to come.
The pitbull weighed only 12 kilos, when the normal weight of an animal of that breed and age should be 30. In addition to the negligent feeding, the furry one was the target of different mistreatment and this situation led one of the neighbors to decide to report what was happening on the property.
The Samaritan who was concerned about the pit bull not only reported it, but also wanted to intervene on his own to help him.
The little animal was dehydrated and urgently needed veterinary help, so when it was rescued from the house where it was kept tied, it passed into the hands of the “Projeto Adote Pitbull” volunteers.
Apparently, what was behind the furry man’s suffering was a case of gross negligence since no one lived on the property. And much less was he in charge of Odin (that’s what they called him).
This is how Luís Felipe García, who is also part of the Pitbull Adote Project, explained it.
“What happened to us is that the owner of the animal is not the owner of the property. The house was empty , a person was placed there to take care of the property.
Luckily the little dog fell into good hands and in just weeks he has recovered from those bitter days that he had to live through. The project volunteers have been in charge of watching over him, feeding him and, above all, filling him with a lot of love.
In a publication on its Instagram account, the SEPA reported on the recovery of this pitbull and its change is indisputable.
“Today we come here to show our before and after of Galego, who was tied to a post with signs of abuse , in addition to being malnourished and anemic, he was sent to our kennel.
Galego received a lot of love and affection in addition to getting a new home! And today it is there, to show that together we are stronger!” they wrote.
