Dog Spent 12 Years Chained Up In The Dirt, Wondering When His Day Would Come

Paws 4 Hope received a call regarding a senior dog who was tied up without food or water. Four years prior, his owner died, which left him with an older adult who ended up neglecting him, writes ilovemydogsomuchThe 12-year-old dog was suffering from severe skin issues, had no teeth, and was extremely filthy and hadn’t received a bath in who knows how long.

They decided to name this sweet dog “Roger,” and rushed him to the nearest vet for proper medical care.

Roger was treated for his ailments and given a much-needed bath before going to live with a loving foster. He is currently receiving treatment for anemia, intestinal parasites, as well as skin and ear issues.

With the love and support from his rescuers, vet staff and foster mom, Roger was transformed not just on the outside, but on the inside as well.

She literally devoured worms and gave birth without eating for a month, demonstrating her amazing will to care for and protect her babies in spite of her own agony.

The owner died more than a month ago. The son also abandoned her; we assume she was ready to give birth since the babies if they reach a month are many. She gave birth there and went a month without eating.

We don’t know how she survived, or how those two tiny soldiers survived. Caught on her mother’s breast, without a drop of milk and suffering from severe anemia, she was physically consumed by worms. Look how frantic she was when she was released, despite the fact that her infirmity makes it difficult for her to move.

Last night, we went looking for her. You can only image how bad the stench was all over her rotten flesh. She was withering to death.

We administered first aid, medicated, administered saline, sanitized, and removed any probable worms. She also let him use the mattress. She refused to eat or drink. We didn’t know if the larger insect had impacted her throat or perforated the jaw, stopping her from doing it.

She has additional tiny bugs on her gum, pear, hand, and hip, as well as a scab on her hip… Her situation is dreadful.We looked after babies who, thankfully, did not have bugs. They simply begin eating. We applied flea powder to them and dewormed them.
