The story of this unfortunate dog is heart-wrenching. For four long years, he was subjected to cruel and inhumane treatment as he was chained outside in the frigid temperatures of Yukon, Canada. Thankfully, his luck changed when a group of compassionate individuals came to his rescue and found him a warm and loving forever home. Diesel, as he is known, never deserved to be mistreated and neglected by his former owner. Alone and with no one to turn to, he must have lost all hope of ever being rescued. But thanks to the kindness of strangers, Diesel now has a chance to live a happy and fulfilling life.
Diesel had no means to protect himself from the assaults of other creatures. Sadly, a horse kicked him on the head, causing him to split his tongue and lose some of his teeth.
One fine day, an angel of protection reached out to the Animal Advocates Society and shared with them the woeful tale of Diesel.
When Diesel was rescued, he had been in a fight with a dog and was covered in blood. His rescuers quickly took him away from his neglectful owner and flew him to Vancouver for medical attention. Diesel received treatment for various health issues including neutering, removal of seven teeth, and a benign tumor. Additionally, he underwent behavior and emotional rehabilitation to help him prepare for a new, loving home.
Regrettably, Diesel succumbed to cancer in his slumber back in 2014. Nevertheless, we can take solace in the fact that he experienced a life brimming with affection and contentment, courtesy of the compassionate individuals who saved him at Animal Advocates. It’s heartwarming to know that he spent his last years surrounded by love and support.
