Last Friday, Audra Petraškienė’s ride through a small Lithuanian town was disrupted by a shocking sight. Audra noticed a shivering dog drenched in water. The compassionate woman decided to stop her car to check whether the puppy was alright, but after taking a closer look she noticed a large metal anchor tied around the poor puppy’s neck.

Audra immediately realized that someone had attempted to take the life of this beautiful dog. “I was shocked. Just thinking about it makes me want to cry” she told Bored Panda. “I realized I have to do something immediately,” Audra said. The kindhearted woman took the dog home, cleaned him up and took him to a vet and luckily, the poor puppy appeared to be in good health. “He looked like a kind and helpless dog” she lovingly described him.

Audra decided to inform the police about the incident, and she also posted about the dog on Facebook hoping to find out more about what could’ve have happened to the scared and abandoned pup.

Her post went viral, and it didn’t take long for the owner of the dog to show up and try to claim it. “The owner seemed like a good person. I am sure that he loves the dog” the woman said. However, it remains unclear who did this to the dog, and whether the owner could’ve done anything to prevent it. Audra decided to leave the dog at an animal shelter until the situation is resolved.
