In recent years, we have seen a growing concern about our responsibility towards the animals we keep as pets, in laboratories, farms or zoos. Are we giving them what they need? If not, are we making them suffer? Do we know what they really want?
It’s amazing how some people can kill an animal so coldly, so much cruelty and cruelty for an innocent creature can’t even fit in our heads. The truth is, unfortunately for those of us whose hearts still turn to the right, whose dark, distorted minds have left any trace of compassion and pity.
A few days ago, a group of men and women from the Stray Paws rescue group , in Saint Louis, Missouri, USA, found a small puppy named Moghy , who was in an unremarkable and worthy condition. most reproachful .
The puppy has bruises from repeated beatings , an inevitable sign of constant abuse at the hands of its former occupants. As if that wasn’t enough, its front and hind legs were tied with ropes, making it unable to move or seek help.
The small animal lay on the grass, on top of a cemetery, a rather important detail that the volunteers did not notice. In fact, it was a miracle to discover it. Moghy was too weak to ask for help, as if he were suspicious, a product of the trauma he suffered.
In fact, he won’t let them get close to him, as a defense mechanism, Moghy bared his teeth and tried to bite his rescuers as they tried to stroke him to calm him down.
“There is no other way to understand: the puppy only sees danger in humans,” said one woman from the rescue team.
With that level of trauma, rescuers chose to do something against Moghy’s wishes and rushed him out of the scene. The poor man no longer knew what was good from what was bad.
“We had to speed up the process. I was in a lot of pain ,” the rescuer added.
He was eventually picked up and taken to a veterinary center, where the ropes were carefully removed and his wound healed. However, it took Moghy months of recovery to trust everyone again .
Finally, he allowed himself to be caressed. Little by little, he regains his confidence until one fine day, a woman decides to share her life with him . Today he is the happy pet of someone who is also happy to have him as a family member.
These cases of abuse and neglect are much more common than we think. Certainly, despite the fact that the past has divided our souls into a thousand pieces, there is always a bright future waiting for us. Never lose faith, share this rescue.
