Each dog enters this world deserving love and care. They should never face heartbreak or mistreatment.
Izzy, a dog expecting puppies, found herself in a heartbreaking situation when her heartless owner abandoned her on the street.
The distressed dog took shelter on someone’s property, where she gave birth to six puppies. Instead of receiving the help and compassion she urgently needed, Izzy and her puppies were mishandled by passersby.
Among her puppies, Cody was targeted and suffered a head injury.
Izzy became frightened and helpless, wishing for kind-hearted individuals to come forward and rescue her precious puppy.
Swift Action to Ensure Their Safety
Compassionate individuals who found the desperate family contacted Rescue Row, a non-profit organization in Texas.
The rescue team arrived swiftly and was devastated by the condition of Izzy and her puppies.
“Izzy is severely malnourished. She is understandably frightened of humans and rolls onto her back when approached. She is emotionally shattered yet remains sweet. We shudder to think about her past,” shared Rescue Row in a Facebook post.
Izzy and her puppies were placed in caring foster homes, where they received abundant love.
Cody’s condition was critical, and the rescue team rushed him to Panther Creek Animal Hospital in Little Elm, Texas.
The four-week-old Cody was so frail he couldn’t lift his head and weighed just one pound.
Dr. Kim and the hospital staff provided him with immediate medical care.
Feeling a bit better, Cody transitioned to his foster family, who ensured he received proper care and hydration.
Battling for Cody’s Survival
Although Cody initially showed signs of improvement, his condition deteriorated a few days later, and he struggled to breathe.
Worried for his life, the compassionate rescuers promptly brought Cody back to Dr. Kim. Both the vet and the staff were determined to save his life.
Cody was severely dehydrated, so the doctor initiated an IV drip, and thankfully, he began to show signs of recovery.
The little furball remained in the hospital for five days. Every night, Dr. Kim took him home to sequester and monitor his condition.
Cody’s foster family visited him daily, relieved to see his condition improving.
He began attempting to walk, tumbling over multiple times but never giving up.
Slowly but surely, Cody regained strength, managing to stand and walk a little. His progress was a source of joy for everyone involved.
A Journey to a Joyful Conclusion
Ten days post-rescue, Cody returned to his foster home, enveloped in the love he so desperately needed.
His furry foster siblings showered him with affection and support. The resilient puppy felt truly cherished.
As days passed, Cody’s health continued to flourish, enabling him to walk more confidently. He also developed a fascination for toys and began engaging with them.
Due to the trauma Cody endured, he was blind in his right eye. A surgery was performed to remove the damaged eye.
The procedure was successful, and Cody made a full recovery.
Dr. Kim and his family were smitten with the brave pup. They formed a deep bond and decided to offer him a permanent home.
Cody was overjoyed to embark on a new life with his forever family. They adored him and showered him with the infinite love he truly deserved.
Izzy and all her puppies also found loving homes, where they are cherished for eternity. This transformation is all thanks to the compassionate individuals who rescued them, ensuring the canine family now lives their best lives.
