Thanks to all the people helping with saving this dog!

The unexpectedly black face likely threw some of the volunteers off their mark. I can just picture them now, tirelessly trying to remove that last bit of black tar from Aloe's face only to discover that it's her tattoo or more appropriately, medal for surviving such a harrowing ordeal. I pray that her forever home has found her now.

Thank you for saving this beautiful doggo! Happy life darling. ❤❤❤

I am heartbroken and so horrified! I will never fathom why someone would do this to an animal

I cried seeing those first pictures, the transformation and all the help she got, keeps that tiny flame lit inside of me that not every human being is evil. I love animals so much.

Many blessings to all the people in this story (from the kids and parents to the rescuers and volunteers!) and to all peole who rescue animals. The more compassion we offer animals the more we learn to offer compassion to fellow humans. These people are leading and teaching by example.

If someone did throw her in the pit then i hope someone throws them in too the amount of cruelty that happens these days it wouldn't surprise me if someone did throw her in. Just hope she finds a lovely home and lives happily ever after. Good on those who helped her and saved her life you are brilliant x

Thank you so much for saving this poor pup. People like you make this world a much better place.

There is a special place in heaven for the people that helped this animal - and there is a special place in hell for those that did this.

I can't say enuf thanks!

Wonderful that for every person that wants to hurt an animal there are many more that want to save and help them. I thank every person who helps animals and will try to be like you all are, if and when the situation arises.

I'm not much of a "pet person" which some people assume means I hate animals. Nothing could be further from the truth. What kind of monster could see this level of suffering and not be affected? That poor creature. Can you imagine being held against your will, unable to move and wondering if you ever will again? I've read the article twice (having to get a new tissue each time, haters), but it doesn't mention if she lost her eyesight or not. It looked like most of her face was covered in tar, so I wonder.

Evil, evil creatures

Best dog story ever but also the saddest im really sad the dog had to go threw that

Looks intentional

You are angels . You really are . That poor dog would have died an absolutely horrible death and you saved her from that. I am so glad that people like you are around. Thank you for all you do.

I want that dog.

I am so grateful for the work this group, and other groups like it, does

To all those truly wonderful people who fight against animal cruelty: "Among the noblest in the land - Though man may count himself the least - That man I honor and revere, Who without favor, without fear, In the great city dares to stand, The friend of every friendless beast." - Henry W. Longfellow, American poet (1807 - 1882)

Restores your faith in humanity. These people are saints!

At a loss for words! This looks deliberate. I hope the find whoever did this and treat them to the same, but they would have to clean themselves. So glad you managed to save this poor soul.

All of you that took part in saving the life of this dog, you are my heros.

Thank you to these amazing volunteers. Aloe is beautiful and lucky to have been found. I'm hugging my pup extra hard tonight.

What a cute and bright dog <3 Thank God, the kids found her in time and called for help. Not everybody does that.

Fantastic people!
