A neglected and forsaken dog, on the brink of euthanasia, pleads for a second chance and discovers hope in the compassion of a kind-hearted woman

The shelter employees made the sad choice to place Rudy on the euthanasia list since they knew they couldn’t afford his treatment.

Rudy’s fortunes altered when a nice woman entered the shelter. Rudy appeared so tormented in his  kennel that the woman immediately agreed to become his foster mother.

While she was successful in having him removed off the kill-list, his survival remained a struggle.

For the following several months, Rudy’s life was filled with painful vet appointments and tons of love and care from his foster parents.

As he got the strength to stand on his own, he began wandering out into the backyard to socialize with his many foster siblings! He was unable to play because of a fractured hip.

By this point, the shelter had raised $6,300 for Rudy’s hip replacement surgery through social media posting. Rudy’s troubles touched people’s hearts, and the funds were swiftly disbursed!

As a consequence of his successful hip surgery, Rudy is now an energetic and fun-loving  dog. He’ll live out his days with his beautiful foster mom and doggy siblings.

We wish this courageous survivor all the happiness in the world!
