It’s truly unbelievable how cruel some people can be towards animals, but thankfully there are also kind people in the world willing to step up and give these poor creatures the love and care they deserve.
That’s the story of one dog, who was left gravely injured after being set on fire, but is now making a steady recovery thanks to an animal rescue.
(Warning: story contains some graphic photos.)
Tied up, shoved into a backpack, she was set on fire by someone who showed her nothing but cruelty.
She was taken in by the San Antonio-based rescue 4 Little Paws, who got her emergency medical care. ”She has open wounds that appear to be consistent with being in a kennel and breaking out to get away from the pain of burning,” 4 Little Paws Rescue wrote, adding that they could still smell the accelerant on her.
On February 7th, 2024, a woman in Nixon, Texas found a dog on her front porch, crying in pain, according to KENS 5. The poor puppy, later named Phoenix, had endured an unimaginable nightmare.
