Chicklet

As rescues, most often when we encounter an abandoned/abused dog we areable to somewhat piece together what their life might have been fromthe physical evidence we see. Such is not the case with Chicklet.


Beside the unimaginable of being burned by acid, it appears he was usedas bait or attacked before being found by someone that dropped him offin a cardboard box at one of our vets.



We were called immediately as hewas being checked over by the doctors. Despite the sickening state wefound him in, one doctor in particular felt despite the hell Chicklethad been put through, that he would be able to be brought back withproper nurturing, medication and patienceâ?¦.she was just worried that noperson or personswould take
him onâ?¦little did she know that we are always up for this challenge.

Beside the above, he was starved, dehydrated, disoriented and working acase of mange. As he is healing, the bite marks and other mysteriouswounds will all be treated and addressed. After about five days in ourcare, with accelerated amounts of nutrition and medication, hisbleeding stopped, he got up, walked around and went back to the newsafe spot that is his bed.

It has been a while since we had this extreme of a â??day at a timeâ?? caseâ?¦.but every day is offering promise.
Every dog deserves humane treatment and yes puppies and cute dogs areeasier from a rescue point of view, but there is something aboutChicklet, his spirit that pulled us in. And on another level, we didnot want him leaving this planet thinking that there is a dearth ofcompassion in humans.
Naturally, anything anyone might be able to contribute to his recovery is beyond appreciated.
Thank you.
We will keep you posted on his progress.
