This Dog Was Left To Die In The Garbage After Family Moved Out, But He Kept On Waiting For Them

ADVERTISEMENT

A cute puppy named Ollie was left to die in the cold when his owners moved houses and decided to leave him by the roadside with their trash.

This little stray dog’s life was saved when Terri Looby, a volunteer from the Detroit Animal Welfare Group (DAWG), received a call about a cute dog, who was wandering around in the freezing winter of the American Midwest. Knowing that the subzero temperatures were clearly a risk to Ollie’s life, the animal shelter worker knew she had to act fast to save his life.

The dog rescuers fed Ollie and took him to the vet. It turned out that he had a broken femur, so they scheduled an operation for him.

Currently, Ollie is enjoying the good life and waiting to be the best family pet for someone. “[Ollie] has been full of love and kisses since he has been rescued,” Terri told Bored Panda. Meanwhile, the animal shelter staff added: “[He] has been an adorable, happy, tail-wagging puppy who just wants a family to love him and not toss him out like he is trash.”

    What loathsome people his previous owners must be and what a loyal and good dog Ollie is. I'm so happy that he has been rescued and cared for by these good people and with an adorably sweet face like his I hope it isn't long before he gets his new, and much better, home! May those awful people never have anything to do with animals ever again.

    How can anybody who has cared for a pet, abandon it like so much garbage? How callous, irresponsible and unfeeling can humans be? Making matters worse, this was done in the dead of winter; at least they could have dropped it off at the SPCA. CRUELTY apparently knows no bounds.
