Abused Dog Tied To Pole All His Life Sees Grass For The 1st Time
A helpless 2-month-old puppy named Peso was being raised by a heartless family in El Nido, Philippines. The owners always tied him up with a 4ft rope to a lamp post near a construction site. He was surrounded by broken glass and sharp metal waste, but the owners never cared, writes ilovemydogsomuch
When a young tourist couple from the UK, Chloe Henley and Alex Jewkes, heard Peso’s heart-wrenching cries, they immediately ran through the unknown lanes to find him. They were appalled to discover that the owners would mock and torment the starving puppy, and feed him just one snail in the afternoon.
Chloe and Alex, who hail from Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, approached the owners and shared their concerns about the puppy’s well-being. The enraged owners refused to entertain them, so the couple begged them to release the puppy. After some discord, the couple was eventually able to rescue Peso from his nightmarish life!
Peso was taken to the vets, where he was found to have a very low platelet count. The puppy had a sore neck due to the tight rope, and was severely malnourished. During their stay in El Nido, Alex and Chloe took care of Peso and significantly improved his health.
Chloe and Alex were on a career break, so they began a fundraiser to get the funds to transport Peso to England. After months of efforts, they raised over $6300 for Peso’s medical expenses and flight cost!
Peso sees a grassy field for the first time in his life. The pup is ecstatic as he rolls around blissfully in the soft grass! Vets say that Peso wouldn’t have lived for long if the couple hadn’t intervened. We’re so glad he got the happy ending he deserved. Peso’s story is nothing less than a fairy tale!
