A team of animal rescuers with specialized skills are working tirelessly to save a senior poodle from ongoing abuse. This poor dog, named Petar, was spotted by a kind Samaritan who became concerned and notified the rescue team. Now, Petar is fighting for his life in an animal sanctuary. The Samaritan first noticed a transparent bag that appeared to be a luxurious toy while driving down the street. But upon further investigation, she was horrified by what she found – poor Petar being mistreated and neglected.
Beside a bag lies an undernourished poodle, resting on the concrete floor during the latest summer season. The dog’s mouth was previously taped shut with adhesive tape and all of its legs were tied together. Although she was not found inside the bag, the rescue team believes that she had already freed herself by the time she was discovered. Once the kind Samaritan realized the severity of the situation, she immediately took action to save the dog’s life.
Upon seeing a business owner using scissors to cut off a dog’s fur, the witness reported the incident to the local animal management. Poodle and Pooch Rescue intervened and offered their expertise in aiding the situation. According to Rebecca Lynch, President of Poodle and Dog Rescue, the act was deemed not just abandonment, but torture. The abused dog, now named Petal, was critically dehydrated, malnourished, anemic, and suffering from infection in both eyes. Poodle and Pooch Rescue arranged for Petal to be transferred to the East Orlando Animal Health facility for treatment. Dr. Peters oversaw her care. Petal’s life was saved, and the rescue team painted a portrait of her as a tribute to her successful recovery.
Previously, she was very susceptible and couldn’t handle being alone. She feeds four times a day and has been struggling with hunger, so she needs to be fed slowly in multiple feedings to avoid getting sick. However, she has been improving every hour and is now no longer lost in the woods. – Rebbecca Lynch, the President of Poodle and Dog Rescue.
Petal has been under the care of the animal sanctuary for about two weeks now and is reportedly improving every day. A recent video shows her walking around their backyard with the help of veterinary expertise, providing back-end assistance for each step she takes. However, she still struggles to use her rear legs on her own, but she is giving it her all.
The atmosphere at the animal sanctuary is currently not very positive due to possible medical or physical issues with one of the animals’ legs. However, the dedicated workforce and support from animal advocates and fans across the country give hope that the situation will improve over time. While PETA may not be tough enough to follow, the team at Poodle and Pooch Rescue encourages all potential adopters to stay updated on the situation and support their efforts. The rescue has promised to provide updates, so it’s recommended to follow and support their work.
It’s important to acknowledge that not all individuals are unhealthy and in need of rescue. This is the reason why we work towards saving various canines within Central Florida, as one individual tortured a human and we need to exclude her now. These efforts are led by Rebecca Lynch, the President of Poodle and Dog Rescue.
