87-Year-Old Man Ties Dog On A Short Chain And Locks Her Up In A Box For 6 Years

Many dogs are straight up born into a life of imprisonment and cruelty. They live like despised outcasts and die without ever knowing love or kindness. The dog in this story was born with a similar rotten luck, but thankfully, the brave intervention of a bunch of Good Samaritans and rescuers changed her wretched fate, source: lovemydogsomuch

This dog lived all 6 years of her life chained in a small doghouse in a stinking backyard. Her 87-year-old owner thought it was perfectly normal for dogs to live in fear and neglect. Finally, someone found out that the dog had no access to food and water, and alerted the cops about the blatant animal abuse. The cops fined the owner and ordered him to surrender the dog to the authorities. He was also banned from keeping dogs again.

In this video, we see the grim situation of the dog when the rescuers come for her. The dog immediately hides at the back of her doghouse when she sees strangers approaching. Apart from her gaunt physique and overgrown nails, the past 6 years of apathy and isolation have clearly ruined her mental state.

The dog’s deep trauma came to the forefront when a rescuer came too close to her. Having never seen any other humans other than her vile owner all her life, she bared all her teeth as she tried to scare the rescuer away. Her body language oscillated between aggressive and terrified, and it was indeed a gut-wrenching sight to witness.

When the rescuer tried to calm the dog down by offering her food, another revelation broke his heart. The poor creature could barely reach her plate due to those sickening chains. No wonder she was so emaciated with absolutely negligible strength on her hind legs. The chains kept getting caught everywhere, thus preventing the dog from reaching her food. To make things worse, her back legs had become disfigured, further increasing her suffering.

The dog was rescued from her chained plight and named Liberty (or Libby for short) to celebrate her freedom. She was taken to “Takis Shelter”, where she met fellow cats and dogs and began smiling for the first time. Her gait was weird due to the underdevelopment of her back limbs, but she was relishing every second of living without restrictions! Watch this video to see Libby’s heartwarming progress at the shelter. She’s a bright girl and we wish her a great life ahead!
