Most of us would love to live in an ideal world where everyone loves and respects everyone and where people treat animals well especially their pets Unfortunately that is far from reality and we can witness that every day
Animals are neglected and abused and most of them are abandoned to the shelters or left to fend for themselves on the streets That human cruelty really has no boundaries many examples show and one of them is the one that happened recently in Lawrenceville Georgia
A rescuers got a call from the local animal shelter about a dog named Scout who was found in a dumpster That in itself is horrible but even worse is the condition the poor dog was in
Heartbreaking Condition

When the rescuer from the Society of Humane Friends of Georgia saw this dog that appeared to be a Doodle they were truly shocked by the heartbreaking condition he was in
Scout was wrapped in dirty laundry starved filthy matted and covered in fleas He was so weak he could not even lift his head much less stand or walk These people could barely hold back their tears but they soon managed to pull themselves together
They knew they had to act quickly so they immediately brought this dog to their car and transported him to the University of Georgia Veterinary Teaching Hospital in Athens Georgia

The doctors there who were by the way shocked when they saw this dog immediately initiated lifesaving measures on him Despite all their efforts his condition was still critical and they knew that his road to full recovery would be long and difficult
Aside from that this condition required constant specialized hospital care This in turn cost a lot of money and they themselves could not cover all of it Thats why they turned to good people through social media who would be willing to donate money for Scouts recovery
Then they realized that there are still humans with huge hearts living in this cruel world
Saved By Many Good Souls

Many kind people who saw the Facebook post about Scouts heartbreaking condition decided to donate money for his specialized care and recovery
That was definitely a turning point in this dogs life and the employees of the rescue organization and the hospital were over the moon because of these peoples noble acts
We want to extend our sincere thanks to all who have chipped in to cover the cost of his hospital stay they wrote in a new post adding Scout is receiving the best of care at UGA and the staff has fallen in love with his sweet resilient spirit
What is most important is that they finally noticed a bit of energy radiating from this dog when one of the doctors took him outside to enjoy a few minutes of fresh air and sunshine She said he brightened up immediately and even tried to wag his tail
It was the best sign that he was on the right path and that despite all the difficulties his full recovery was only a matter of time They were convinced of that only two days later when Scout with the help of a wheelchair finally stood on all four legs and was delighted about it
