There are many ways you can feel completely heartbroken or disappointed when working as a rescuer, but I would argue that one of the saddest things is seeing stray puppies on their own.
To think how difficult it must be for them to try and survive on their own is just a depressing thought.
Luckily, some of them will get a new chance if they come across somebody who is willing to offer them a way to live their life.
For this puppy, he was fortunate enough that a group of rescuers noticed him while driving on the highway and realized that he really needed their help.

After they stopped their car, the rescuers noticed that this poor puppy was walking directly toward them. They knew that he wanted their help.
Just by looking at him, you could tell that he was very young and likely only a month old. He was also seriously malnourished and was not going to make it if not for his rescuers.
I just can’t understand why it took so long for somebody to finally notice and decide to step in to help the puppy.
They examined him even closer and noticed just how dirty he was. Upon approaching him, they realized that he was a bit timid.
Even though he clearly wanted help, he preferred to stay at a distance with most people out of fear of getting hurt.
The rescuers took note of this and decided to change their approach. They spent 30 minutes trying to befriend him and they finally succeeded.
After he had completely relaxed, they took him back to their vehicle and it was then time for a vet visit.
A Road To His New Life
After a checkup, they realized that he was showing signs of fever and he also had some intestinal tract problems.
There is a slight chance that he ate something a while ago that was now causing him serious problems.
He was obviously really starved, which meant that he would have to be placed on a special diet so he could regain his weight.
The vet also cleaned the dog and took care of all the bite wounds caused by insects. He was already starting to look a little better after this.
While his health problems are serious, they are not life-threatening, and the puppy will be able to recover with proper treatment and nutrition.
Now that the difficult part was over, the vet instructed the rescuers on how to treat him and it was time to take him home.
The Puppy Is So Happy Now
One of the rescuers had volunteered for this, and she decided that he would be safest in her care.
She took care of him and made sure that he had everything he needed. His intestinal problems have also subsided a bit, and he is doing a lot better.
After about two weeks, the rescuers realized that he was doing so much better, so they all decided to head on a trip along with their other dogs.
Even though he was small, he got along with all the other dogs in the group, and they had a wonderful time together.
In the end, this sweet puppy has managed to overcome all the odds and is now living a really amazing life with his rescuers.
While we don’t have information on what happened next or if they decided to place him on an adoption list, I am so glad to see that he is finally happy with his new friends.
