Life isn’t always easy, and sometimes, challenges and strained relationships can lead to unfortunate situations. One of the most heartbreaking outcomes is when these difficulties result in animal abuse. This was the tragic fate of a husky that spent nearly two years chained up without proper food or water. Reports indicate that the dog’s owner mistreated him as a form of revenge against his ex-wife.
The owner had originally given the husky to his wife as a gift. However, after she filed for divorce, he redirected his anger towards the innocent dog. In an act of pure intentional neglect, he tied the dog on a leash and stopped feeding him entirely. When rescuers from the Animal Rescue and Kare of McCurtain County (ARK) finally found the husky, he was nothing more than a “bag of bones.”
This husky was severely neglected by his owner as an act of revenge against his wife, who had filed for divorce.
As a result, the husky spent nearly two years living on a leash with no proper access to food or water.
When rescuers found him, he was merely a “bag of bones” with hardly any fur left.
They immediately transported him to Pet Angels Rescue in Guthrie, Oklahoma. One of the rescuers recalled the heartbreaking encounter, noting that the dog didn’t even resist their approach. It was as if he had been waiting for someone to save him all along, showing he was more than ready to be rescued.
Rescuers brought him to Pet Angels Rescue in Oklahoma, where he received deworming and other essential medical treatments.
The little fella slept for the entire two-hour trip to the shelter. Upon arrival, he was immediately given a medicated bath to soothe his skin and underwent multiple rounds of deworming. The kind people at the shelter named him Finn and showered him with the love, care, and freedom he deserved.
At that time, the poor pup was extremely emaciated and severely suffering from mange.
According to the shelter, the poor husky was one of the worst cases they had encountered at that time.
Nevertheless, he managed to make the most incredible transformation in just a short span of time.
With the proper care and love from the shelter staff, Finn managed to recover quickly.
In just two months, his appearance and overall well-being improved drastically. He not only gained a lot of weight and regrew his fur, but he also became a much happier dog. This shows that proper care and love are key to healing the wounds of the past.
He gained a lot of weight and eventually regrew his fur.
More importantly, he became a much happier dog.
Finn’s story serves as a reminder that animal abuse still persists, and we must remain vigilant and continue standing up for their rights.
