Bruno’s story is truly heartbreaking.
Throughout his life, he knew only pain and suffering. He never had the chance to see what life could be like in a caring family, or how gentle the touch of a loving human being is.
Instead, he drove a busy mountain road in Georgia alone for days, just inches from being fatally injured by passing cars. Deep down, Bruno was looking for hope, but he never found it.
Until…
He had completely given up
Audray Luck, the founder of The rescue of lucklocated in North Georgia, I spotted this giant boy in the middle of the road. Shocked by what she had just seen, she immediately stopped and rushed to help the poor dog.
But the rescue was not a cakewalk. At first, Bruno was simply too shy to let Audray near. He fled onto the field, refusing to come any closer.
That’s when Stéphanie, her friend and fellow rescuer, intervened. With his famous “whispering dog” SKILLS, Stéphanie managed to relax Bruno a bit, and the two became friends in no time.
Just when they thought the rescue would be a success, heartbreak happened!
During their examination by road, Audray and Stéphanie realize that Bruno is not feeling well at all. Instead of being happy and excited about making new friends, he just laid down, almost unable to lift his head.
He had no energy to move and lay completely still in the grass.
“Bruno had completely given up and when I started examining him on the side of the road I knew he had a very difficult life,” Audrey wrote in a Instagram post.
Multiple health problems
After removing Bruno from the busy street, Audray and Stéphanie took him to the vet.
What they learned in his very first exam truly broke their hearts.
This big wood had not one, but multiple health problems, including heartworms, ticks and ehrlichiosis. In addition to all this, he had two holes in his gums of a stick that he had stuck in his mouth for months.
But what shocked them the most was when the veterinarian told them that Bruno had been the victim of a shooting. He had over a hundred bullets in him after being shotand yet, he still managed to move around.
It’s not surprising he looked like he had completely given up on life. With all these problems, it was a true miracle that he was alive.
He spent most of the time in Audrey’s care sleeping. For the first time in what seemed like forever, he finally had the chance to rest and feel safe, despite his condition.
Bruno knows suffering, but he chose love
If I had to describe Bruno with one word, it would definitely be: resilience! Despite all the challenges he faced in life, he never lost that spark in his eyes. Bruno was a lovebug – a dog who I just wanted to love and be loved.
“He knows suffering all too well and he chooses love every day. » Audrey said in another message.
However, his kind temperament did not go unnoticed.
After a while, a woman contacted Audray wanting to adopt Bruno. However, she didn’t know how he would react to her son, so she decided to take him in on a trial basis, with a foster family. And, in just three days, she was amazed!
“They knew after three days that they were going to adopt him. And we are so happy that he will never have to experience pain again. Audrey said Cuddly Buddies.
After all the storms of his life, Bruno has finally found a forever home. He will continue his treatment until he is fully recovered, but the important thing is that from now on he will never be alone again!
Good luck, Bruno. We wish you a speedy recovery!
