When a Good Samaritan heard some strange noises coming from a dumpster it didnt take them long to realize that those were actually the cries of a dog in need
They immediately contacted Tullahoma Animal Shelter and informed them of the situation Two rescuers David Reed and Chris Cabral immediately headed to the location
As soon as they arrived they took a look inside the dumpster and what they saw completely broke their hearts

At the bottom of the dumpster the rescuers saw a pup inside a tightly bound white trash bag which unable to breathe properly stopped barking
Even though they suspected the worst Reed and Cabral quickly took a net and fished the bag out of the dumpster

They anxiously cut open the bag and when they saw the state of the pup they thought they were too late
He was not moving crying or barking When he began to breathe they immediately contacted one of our veterinarians in order to get him emergency care Tullahoma Animal Shelter animal control manager Cheryl Rhoads told The Dodo
The pup named Oscar was rushed to the vet where he was given subcutaneous fluids and other needed medications as well as a muchneeded haircut

Initially this Yorkie weighed six pounds But after the vets cut all the severe mats from his little fragile body his body weight dropped to four and a half pounds
Finally after being in a healthy and loving environment Oscar immediately started feeling and looking better

New Life
Since Oscar is currently part of an active investigation in order to determine what truly happened to him he is not available for adoption despite countless offers
However he did become a foster pet to a loving family who are doing their best for him to regain his health completely
And he sure is loving it
Oscar has some sass to him His favorite activity is to burrow up in blankets and sleep He also likes to be held but on his terms Rhoads said
He doesnt really like taking his medicine such as eye ointment and drops or having his cream for the infection on his bottom but he does like to bury himself in blankets for his naps

His rescuers are overjoyed to see him going from a pup who was practically fighting for his life to one who is enjoying life and having neverending fun
I am sure that the investigation will soon be closed and he will become a part of a loving family
Good luck Oscar
Final Word
Unfortunately Oscar isnt the only pup who was cruelly dumped
Countless animals are abandoned on the streets by their owners forcing them to fend for themselves in order to survive the harsh life on the street
But this is not the way
Please if you for whatever reason are no longer able to take care of your furry friend please drop them off at your local shelter and give them a second chance at life They deserve it
