Every now and then, a story comes along that just breaks your heart.
Meet Teddy.
This is a re-post of his story:
In the midst of many special-case animals becoming homeless and entering rescue, another Weimaraner has just been accepted into Tickled Pink Weimaraner Rescue. This male was found by a member of the public who brought him to their local shelter- Baldwin Park Shelter. The shelter was incredibly supportive and amicable, welcoming us with open arms.
After our volunteers picked the dog up he was taken to one of our trusted veterinary hospitals. We don’t know much about this dog, other than he is one of the most neglected animals we could ever imagine seeing. He is severely emaciated, has open sores and granulomas on every joint on his body, enlarged lymph nodes, deep ear infections, various other lacerations, urine burns on his skin, and multiple pedunculated (hanging) tumors from his chest.
Teddy spent a few days in an intensive care unit and is now in the comfort of a foster home. He has come so far but has a long road ahead.
