Iowa Pup Abandoned in a Cage and Left Out in the Cold Celebrates After Being Rescued

Date:

Stray dogs are a common sight on streets everywhere; a universal issue that often leaves many canines struggling to survive. Those abandoned by their owners after years of being indoors face the greatest challenges, as they find it incredibly hard to adjust to the outside world. Some may wait in vain for their owners to return, but one pup’s plight was far more desperate.

She was left in a cage, freezing for hours until compassionate rescuers arrived to assist her.

Rise’s New Hope

Rescuers from Kings Harvest Pet Rescue No Kill Shelter in Iowa were shocked to discover a dog freezing in the cold. Reports indicated that her owner had been seen abandoning her on the street by the old shelter building, perhaps thinking it was still occupied and that someone would help her.

Unfortunately, the building had been vacant for months. Upon reviewing CCTV footage, rescuers saw the dog follow her owner all the way to her kennel before being abandoned. Remarkably, a Good Samaritan noticed her limping and called for assistance.

Upon arrival, the rescuers were horrified by Rise’s condition; she appeared severely neglected and was very thin, with a noticeable limp. They quickly took her to the shelter for urgent care.

She Will Bounce Back

Fortunately, after receiving the medical attention she desperately needed, Rise was on the road to recovery without any major health issues. While she will need her vaccinations before being placed on an adoption list or going to a foster home, her rescuers are actively exploring options and working hard to find her a loving foster family.

The reasons behind her owner’s actions remain unknown, but he could have treated her with much greater care. The very least he could have done was surrender her directly to the shelter if he was unable to ensure her well-being. Kings Harvest Pet Rescue No Kill Shelter urges that no one be afraid to seek help if they are struggling to care for their pets. Thanks to the kindness of a stranger, this pup now has a second chance at life, and she deserves a brighter future.
